3 years from manufacture should be a date on collar or base  with month/year built

yes we care its part of the Scruit process, (read the sup regs to see who the Scruit is....)

 

has to be in cabin, bolted down (no tech screws zip ties etc)

do fire extinguishers have expiry dates / do DECA people care? also can it be mounted in the boot or have to be close to driver? 

ok found this, I guess the boot technically counts as inside the vehicle right?

All vehicles must be equipped with a minimum 900gram fire extinguisher securely mounted inside the vehicle with a metal bracket. Extinguishers must comply with the Australian Standard – AS 1841 and not be more than five years old.

lol Falcon owner.

No more than 3 years old (for CAMS, not sure if 5 for AASA). Must be in a relatively reachable position from the drivers seat.

Yeah I saw your name on there hah, so 3 years not 5 like it says? gonna have to bolt one of dem bitches in. 

Just dont wanna ruin my nice falcon interior, know wat i'm sayin'? All this is hard work, motorbike track days are YOLO

Supps should say in the cabin then, not 'inside the vehicle' :P 

 

if sup regs say 5 5 it is?

 

must have been an old template that slipped though but that the rules we follow.

 

yes securly mounted.

 

can you use a seat mount bolt? that what I used to do on the S14 when dailied it

 

A 1 kg fire extinguisher is not going to stop your car from burning. It is going to help to stop flames from burning you if you are trapped, giving other people more time to get to you and get you out of the car.

General rule I like to use is, if in an accident and your seatbelt locks (or you're stuck in a harness). Can you reach and retrieve the fire extinguisher from where it is mounted. I've got short arms and can't reach it if it was under the front lip of my passenger seat, so I've mounted mine on the passenger side of the tunnel, behind the passenger seat, where I can reach with one hand even if my hips are pinned in seat.

That Ferarri was caused by the driver losing it sideways over the dirt and rolling it on its side, then a small car fire (as Ferarri's do) / hot exhaust fire started which sparked a big dry grass fire and the rest is history.

Though, most likely whatever event that was at didn't require extinguishers, hell... probably didn't even need helmets.

if anyone wants a brown leather couch and matching recliner (in good condition) for free, lemme know. New couch arrives on monday and would like to get rid of old one beforehand.

Put it on the curb in the hood... It'll get snatched up fast

But then I have to move it.... The idea of free is that I dont have to do much.
Would random people take it up for $50 on gumtree you reckon? Or would everyone just lowball me for $20?

Depends where you live though, if its a main road then scabs will take it for sure... I'm in a street that just loops onto itself in a decent suburb, so the only people that drive past aren't interested in nature strip waste :P

The number of dandenong scabs that cruise through the street in utes and vans when we have rubbish collections is scary

Considering I've done it in the evo (they couldn't get traction)... ain't too hard... I've probably got about 170awkw...

no hard rubbish collection out there.

If you want a bulk lot gone you can call the council once a year and arrange a set time for a pick up.

 

Yeah, ours is like that as well now.

Seems a waste to do it for a single couch though ;) and he'd STILL need to move it out to the street, which is obviously not an option

I call bullshit

 

On him even wanting to drag

 

These guys drive those cars like they're a 50 year old Ferrari

Knowing what I know about Leroy I wouldn't take his couch

I feel like it would be full of home brand corn chip crumbs and cultures that mainstream medicine can't kill and you've never heard of

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
