  1. lol funny story at work todayabout airbags. a customer managed to sett off 3 airbags within 15m of the driveway out of my work brand new mk6 golf 6 TDI hit a merc ml ran up a gutter hit a pole and drove into a brick wall. the car is a writeoff from it damage to almost every panel except rear left door. 3 airbags went off in the process so yeah exciting. the driver went to hospital with leg injuries of some kind not to sure ho bad though but my plan was to buy a wrecked sportivo, swap the gearbox when i take out the engine for the build, interior over into my levin after everything else is done but... i contacted the rta and im not allowed to remove airbags of anykind that were factory fitted unless engineered by an approved rta place so big paain. i argued to him that only 1 version had side airbags and the rest didnt so it does not affect safety in any way to making it below what toyota designed it to have but he repeated himself saying enginnered this laws and beaurcratic mumbo jumbo so im looking into a retrim with less side flex for better cornering :P
  2. and the celica gearbox be exactly the same as the corolla box. would have to check toyota catalogue for that one im guessing. and the drive shafts are from 2zz aswell??? it would be better to run both shafts from the 6spd
  3. yeah got all the equipment needed at work. man i love working for volkswagen all awsome equipment there
  4. um then why do i have airbag warning stickers on the inside of the front doors and stickers on the seats saying srs side airbags not to mention i saw the airbag wire harness that connects to the floor cmon guys levins have double the airbags u should know that by now. this is my second levin now... after i found out how to deploy the airbags in the first one by hitting a wall on the front left corner
  5. and obvoiusly you will use a 1zz-fe flywheel and u said for 1zz clutch
  6. just curious to know exactly where they are??
  7. ydoit4 aka dave and i bought these mount inserts and we we just wondering if anyone else has done the same, and installed these. how easy was it etc we started on it last sunday and found they had also packed the 3/4 inserts being ok but the 4th being the same as 2 others.
  8. dead set??? so just bolt in and bolt out and reconnect everything and obviously the tranny mounts are in the same spot if its the case i will do that soon too cause it will be cheaper than getting a recondt 1zz box. awsome :P :P :P
