RX8 on FIRE...
 

Saw one Rx8 today at Paya Ubi with the engine already taken out of the car n the windscreen damaged n from the look of it the whole engine compartment was on fire before thus leaving the car look charred. Hopefully it is not an engine problem that caused the fire.....

i think with the recent cases of rx8 catching fire...is better for all 8 drivers to get a fire extinguisher....










cause our 8 too fast too fiery liao.

wah lau eh.....

scary sia~! :Eyecrazy: :Eyecrazy: :Eyecrazy:

i think we need to organise a grp prayers!!!

:grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug:

Does anyone know what's the cause of the fire? 4-tooth did you see the car plate? At least have some gauge on how old the car is.

ya, your brothers' car... why huh?
name them they good luck.. so dun la... i oredi forgive forget...
god bless

no la...my brother drive subaru not rx8. I also never name anyone or sae the car is blue colour or black colour or watever colour leh. I just telling all 8 drivers to take care...be cautious...get a fire extinguisher nia...play safe...dun be sorry.

no man the number plate was already removed...... anyway I dun think it is a good idea to let everyone know of who was the victim.. ha ha ..... Reason why I am posting this topic is just to find out how many more RX8 suffered from the same problem? N is the car in stock condition n catches fire or aftermarket mod which causes it to happen? Turbo????

CoupeM, dun play number dun play color... you good boi
u organising a group buy for fire extinguisher???
heard gfoo got 1 in his ride...

4-TOOTH, stock or aftermarket... wat u think? hmm...

Anyway, the drivers are OK. God Bless.
*peace

Ya ya...autobacs selling..13 bucks for big one and 14 bucks for small one.

I'm gonna get 2 big ones

I've done a search but can't decided which type of extinguisher is better. Some chemical powder are corrosive and will most lightly damage the components. CO2 not practical if out in the open air.

Anyone got any good recommendations?

Use those Gas type.
Not liquid ones...(prevent petrol spreading)

CAUTION: you need to safe keep the extinguisher blow 50degC

< i found a small one 400ml at $8.90 made in Germany or UK>

Which type of gas? Thought only have CO2.

simple - to prevent rx8 from catching fire, try not to fart when cheonging engine.

tat muz be a damm smelly rage of fire on the go... aka flaming rotorbusuk...

do do doo do doo lolx:yelrotflm

btw, my bro saw a fire extinguisher in your car...
