Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Please mount your extinguisher better than two bloody rubber bands.

    At 1kg, they become a missile in the event of a crash/rollover. Anyone remember Bathurst in the 80s where the Celica driver got their jaw cleaned off their face, due to the extinguisher bouncing around in the car? Poor bloke died.

    The rubber straps are for a first aid kit.

    Mount an extinguisher SOLID to the floor, in the cabin, where you are. None of this plastic bracket crap, either.
    Cheap, Fast, Reliable. Choose two.

      Stuwey, you have a very valid point and that was why I started building this end of last year - the materials are sorted, I just need to finish the damn thing!

          I can't take the credit - but for those interested, it's a very simple addition. Mad Racing.
