Bought scarles air bag thing thought that was best way to go

[kamineko]

do you have a link to 'air bag thing'?

is it an air bag delete? if so, before CS jumps on the parental bandwagon, maybe explain to your actual parents that you are removing the airbag and see what they say

[ADIKT]

I have never seen an aftermarket airbag wheel. And a quick search on trademe failed to find one

[DacerX]

yeah i had to cert when i removed my airbag.

That will stop your SRS/Airbag light from coming on.

It will not stop the WOF man from failing your car.

Steering wheels

• the vehicle does not have an airbag installed as OE, and
  
• the vehicle is not required to comply with a frontal impact occupant protection standard¹. The following vehicles with a GVM of 2500kg or less are required to comply with such a standard:
  

– class MA motor vehicles manufactured from 1 March 1999, and

– class MA motor vehicles that were less than 20 years old when they were first registered in New Zealand on or after 1 April 2002, and

– class MB or MC motor vehicles manufactured from 1 October 2003, and

• the steering wheel is:
  

– a direct substitute without shaft modification, and

– a non-OE item of a reputable brand or an OE item from another vehicle.

¹ A vehicle that cannot comply with this clause cannot be LVV certified unless it has been issued with an LVV authority card, or is at least 14 years old.

Just a heads up, your car will get certed for the size rims you've got. So if you have 16's you'll always have to have 16's, unless you go for a recert. May want to hold off on changing certain things until you've got everything you want that would get certed ready and on the car.

[Kyleej15turbohelp]

Thanks timmah have some 18x 8.5 that come this Tuesday and are going to be put on that weekend so should I rebook for the cert

[boon]

Well, heres the fun bit.

If you put tyres and camber on those rims that will fit under your car, you will fail the cert.

If you cert it without the wheels, you could get green stickered for having rims that don't match your cert.

Man, with all the coin you've already spent on it you probably could have insured a turbo.

[Kyleej15turbohelp]

Mags were only 900 and exhaust was 400 and steering wheel was 200 I couldnt have even bought all the parts for a turbo

[boon]

So $1500, plus $250 for the cert... = $1750

Or you could have bought an older WRX and used that $1750 to insure it.

EDIT: And it probably would have had mags, an exhaust and even an aftermarket steering wheel on it already...

[Kyleej15turbohelp]

Yea but I have to keep this car till I'm 17 man

[ADIKT]

Then start saving your money for the next one. Slam the **** out of this one and have some fun. You'll be 17 before you know it then you can sell up and buy something else

[Kyleej15turbohelp]

That's what I'm doing man plus it's cheap as chips to get me all round the place for my surfing competitions Man
