1. Look at the your fire extinguisher, it will have a maximum temperature written on it somewhere (well, it should).. if it's less than 50degC, I wouldn't leave it in the car on a hot day. At the very least don't have it mounted in direct sunlight.

2. Not that I know of.

3. Yes, the stock dump pipe AND front pipe, are rather restrictive.

4. Don't do it. If you really have to, be smart about reinforcing the areas that have been removed.

1) what bubba said - that said... i would say most AUST approved fire extinguishers would have to be designed to withstand our oven-like temperatures so you should be in the clear there...

2) give these blokes a call http://www.cplastix.iinet.net.au/

3) with skylines... any custom built and properly fabricated exhaust component will give better performance than stock "economy" considerate / cost cutting material... so yeah i'd say so..

4) i dunno man... wadda YOU reckon? do you reckon it'd be a good idea to hack up a structural crash absorbing thick piece of steel on your car for the sake of a bit more airflow?

...i didn't think so either :P

all the best!!

4) depends on ur front bar, i had to make some alterations due to the design of my greddy front bumper (n1 air ducts).

if you take out the reinforcement bumper there will be nothing but ur radiator support bar in the way if you get into a front end collision.

if u do get in a front end collision without it, the front of your car will be f*kd
