Arrrgh! Damn printer wont work so i cant fill in the form just yet, can i just make payment to secure a spot??

Also, dumb question for you, with the Fire Extinguisher will the SCA $30 do? And if its mounted off a plate behind the passanger seat or something does that count? I dont really want it in plain sight as the whole build on my car revolves around looking stock....

Fire extinguisher:

This is the trickiest bit, due to installation.

$30 from Autobarn (or similar). There's some threads around where people have mounted their extinguisher under the back seat; Chubbs posted one ages ago, but I'm having trouble finding the link at the moment. Anyone who'd like to post it, it would be appreciated.

Hey, I can make a PDF with a form in it if that helps? That way you can fill it in and save it (hopefully). Oh wait, yeah, gotta print to sign, my bad.

As for mounting the extinguisher: By "under" the back seat I kinda mean in the rear footwell... kinda. Will try and photochop what I mean!

oh i found something. if you buy an extinguisher with a bracket, then mount it to this bolt:

it's the bolt that helps hold the bottom of the rear seat down.

that's what i've done; with the passenger seat back, you can barely see it.

Yep, thats brilliant.... I was trying to work out off the seat bolts or something, completely forgot about that one!!! Will go buy one this arvo :D

As for the forms, i have a printer guy coming to sort it out for me tomorrow..... JUST make sure i have a spot :woot:

just make sure the extinguisher has a metal bracket not plastic..

drill out the hole if need be and just leave it there forever like most of us have.

Send me the money now as it will take a day or 2 to clear into the account.. dont worry you will be safe for a spot there are only 3 of us atm

Hahaha well Racer boy, i just found the motivation too ;)

Ummm Dave, you'll see what i mean about the printer when you get the thing i printed this morning, fuser units and toner replaced and it still looks like someone threw up on it :glare:

The only thing that is holding me back from this event is the need to have a fire extinguisher. Installation + Cost of the fire extinguisher would probably end up being $100.00 (allowing 30 for the item, and 70 for installation).

:rofl2:

That is all...

:laugh:

installation = 0

seriously, get the $30 extinguisher with the metal bracket, and mount it on the bolt I posted the pic of above. Undo bolt, put bolt through bracket, screw down. Clip extinguisher in, done.

This weekend I'll take photos of mine (putting reminder in phone)

Payment "could" take up too 3 days to clear, did you email or fax the forms?

Dave may have received the email but could be waiting on payment to clear before he updates the entrants list.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
