Anyone get K.O'd by the huge dumping of rain an hour ago?

Our drainage got blocked and flooded whole garage. Was seeping under the concrete of the floor.

My room is next to the garage so my wooden floor probably going to be stuffed hehe.

We have insurance but still a hassle oh well.

Pix!

pwned! down incline driveways FTL.... unless u have a big ass grated drain at the bottom to redirect the run off water..

I got a down incline driveway. It sucks. I just spent the last 15 minutes removing all my stock parts from the garage floor as it was starting to flood. Mine is so steep i can't park my car in there without scraping the front bar. I even have one of them big ass grated drains too :action-smiley-069:

On a serious note, if people need assistance with flood or water damage, examples are flooded garages :action-smiley-069: water in houses leaking rooves etc call the State Emergency Service (SES). 132 500. You will be directed to call 132 500 if you call 000.

I was at work all day, anything that could have gone wrong, went wrong. We had 6 major leaks, and a tram got hit by lightning right outside! on top of that, as whithorse road was flooded there was water simply flowing in the front door... it all make for an exciting day, as none of the stuff getting damaged was mine :D

    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later. 
    • Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
