Damn sucks this happened to your car, but cool that your sticking to your goal...


Fire extinguishers will ruin your engine anyway if spread onto a fire, it is very corrosive and will eat away at parts and wires. There are a few out there for the automotive world but are very very expensive

So you dont need no water just let the muth ffffer burn

Im not even sure if they have figured out what caused it. But, Ill ask tomorrow..

And dang I didnt know fire extinguishers were not good unless you got the kind for this specific reason..

i still rather have damage from fire extinguisher than having completely burnt car, it will save you interior and thousands of dollars worth of electronics and personal property

there's a better method. a gas, actually. i can't think of the name....but it suffocates the fire and puts it out....

i might do that if/when i start modded in the engine bay....for safety's sake....

Well insurance is giving me 15,800 pay off is 15,052. And, also my agent is looking into the aftermarket parts coverage. So, I could be getting about $2000 for my performance parts..

parting out?

check page 6 for pictures.. its not worth it.. lol

JoeSchizo

run a line of that gas, once you find out what it is(i would find out and tell you but on my way to class. ), to the engine bay with a safety button within reach just in case this time....it'd reeeeally blow if it happened twice.

plus the line and bottle would look cool...and official.

GReddy_tC

Lol.. i have no clue where to search and find what this gas slightly is..

You mean... er, carbon dioxide?

Usually an automatic fire suppression system is only necessary when you have a massive fire already brewing in the car. I'd just carry around a BC rated extinguisher in your car.

i'll take the torched seats

GReddy_tC

I know thats the plans if i get it.. its a very rare 5 speed. Its silver with black leather and sued inserts.. Im gonna call him tomorrow and see if I can work something out.. I only have $3000 right now. So, i would need a loan.

Only problem is I have these brand new parts for the tC. I need to get rid of them. But, I paid soo much for it and no one will give me what I want out of it all.

GReddy_tC

These seats are hot man. Hope your willing to pay about $800 a seat lol.. what about the wire sparco sterring wheel will start bidding at $300..
