    I have no idea what happy laps is but it sounds like something I wish they'd do down here if it means that you don't have to bolt an extinguisher into your car to turn a wheel in anger on a racetrack. I've got a solution to mount one in my old 6R Polo Gti for a motorkhana, haven't checked to see whether it would bolt under the Skoda seat rails yet. Will have to be careful when I check, I think the boss would crack it if she saw me prepping it for a track day.......

    Hey mate, it's just for happy laps, and not required, but as it was cheap I thought I'd put it in, not a bad thing to have in general theses days on the road.

    Yea I'll zip tie it up and have a pair of cuts tapped to the bottle.

    Yes CAMS would laugh at that install.

    I see it as, something is better than nothing.

    As we have a Track day coming up, Thought I'd be safe than sorry...
    So Popped in to Bunnings for a 1kg Fire Extinguisher (Dry Powder $15.80)

    Installed with Cable ties in the boot via the cargo net hooks, seems to hold up for a lap around the block.

    Hey HPRS230, are there CAMS affiliated clubs in QLD cool with the extinguisher being mounted in the boot like that and with no clasp?
    I've had many an argument with motorsport marshals down here in Vic over the years about placement and brackets of compulsory fire extinguisher that wasn't within arms reach of the driver and properly retained with a clasp.
    That might become a missile in a decent shunt, not dissing your work, just wouldn’t want you to spend all your time prepping your car for the track and getting KB’ed on the day by a knit picking marshal.

    Back at tyre shop as I've got a puncture on the right front.
    What's the deal with new cars getting punctures...

    Edit, it may have been the tpms sensors, so we have tightened them up

    Hey Mate,
    To get it displayed on your Columbus, you need:
    - JB4 Wireless kit (I did try with usb Y cables and a like, but the phone didnt like it)
    - OBD11 (Pro I guess) https://www.autoinstruct.com.au/prod...nostic-system/
    - Enable Video in motion via OBD11 MirrorLink + Video In Motion on US MIB2 = working (!!!)
    - Plug Android Phone in and Mirrorlink it to dash.
    - Then enjoy your gauges on the screen.

    Mirrorlink is only Android, But Im on the hunt for an iphone workaround...

    As well as sorting out the above, I've ordered a DTE pedal box thingy.
    Should have by Friday, fingers crossed....
    Pedal Remap - PedalBox: increases throttle response

    On a side note,
    I think I've seen a couple of other RS230's around Brisbane, by only looking out for the black pipes....
    Wish they were easier to see
    Won't help you with mine haha

    Bit disappointing that its not really 0.1 PSI, more like 0.3/0.4 PSI.
    So cant really get them all the same.
