C60 vs C64

As the question above, just after some input on gearboxes.

Would the Celica 6 speed gearbox fit the Corolla Sportivo/RunX if we re-use the linkages and/or brackets??

How much of a mucking around do we need??

A transmission specialist should be able to swap them no problems eh ???

Cheers guys ....

yes, but mounts & linkages are all different

Just re-use the corolla ones. Any problems with it then?

Are the engine mount locations on the gearbox different?

I could be wrong but I am leaning towards Gavs answer in that the mounts are different on the Celica. Sure I have read it somewhere but by all means don't believe everything you read LOL

[Guni]

Yeah. They are on the opposite side compare to the Corollas but the limited search I have done says it doesn't take much to make it work on a corolla if re-use the linkages.

Again, happy to be corrected if wrong. I'm here on a fact finding mission. Any input helps.

i reckon that if the mounts are on opposite ends of the garbox, then that would require a fair bit of fabrication in order to get it to fit in the ZZE12X chassis.

not really a fair bit more, but defiantely some...

If the the external shift/rocker mechanism goes into each box in the exact same place, and the bolt eyes for the mounting brackets are in the exact same place, it will work with minimal fuss. But alas, we are still waiting for confirmation on these 2 points. :P But still, even if the shifter/rocker isn't quite in the same place, the shift cables might have enough play to accommodate it. If the parts from each box are available, something might be able to be worked out...

[Guni]

Yup. Enough with the IFs .....

Now for confirmation ......

Johnny, I've already got pictures of the ZZT celica's gearbox in the car. Linkages are at the opposite side compare to the sportivos.

My question is can the ZZT231 gearbox fit the Sportivo if we re-use linkages from the Sportivo.

Thanks mate. But do post pictures as I lost mine when old HDD crashed.
