antil33t 90 Report post Posted October 4, 2010 Mine's mounted to the front of the seat, there's already holes there for a fire extinguisher, I just bent up a piece of aluminum. (it moves back/forth with the seat too). Pics later ;P I've actually already discharged one of my extinguishers on an arson, so very handy 20 buck insurance policy.

DRTDVL 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2010 Go to Mitre10 Mega you can get MSNZ certified ones there for something like $25. We got one last week there for a friend. For a 2.0ltr (non-turbo) car and under you need a 1kg fire extinguisher for clubsport racing. Figure people will read this, this is from another forum: Re: NZPCC Taupo track day by andygti » Sat Oct 02, 2010 7:58 pm well after all we really needed those extingushers! nogrip had a major engine malfunction which caused #3 rod to break free from the cranck and smash a hole in the block and then BOOM caught fire!! luckily me and bevin were overtaking him at the time and had a extinguisher so stoped to help put out the flames. it took 4 of them to kill the flames! must say tho im really shocked at the organisers, not one came to check if we needed a hand or bring a spare extingusher!!

antil33t 90 Report post Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) When I take the seat out to fix the seatbelt clicker up I'll remake my bracket out of steel so it's sturdier. Where do you get them for $20? Was a SCA one, but my new one (in pic) is the 25 dollar one from Mitre 10, as the arson was my dads car so they bought me a new extinguisher.
