For a report that's been going all damn day, there's piss-all information. They just hit the repeat button on the dvd player...

Its bullshit isnt it. Radio is far more informative.

Hey guys, try ALDI, i know its weird and german and shit but apparently no one goes there so it contains ample food supplies, not the we are going to need them.

agree with you there noel, abc radio gives a pretty good coverage of it.

Went to the servo earlier cause i needed coke for my scotch, old mate said once the coles over the road ran out of bread and milk he had a wall of people running to his servo, even fighting like it was the last loaf of bread ever, its funny watching people panic. I'll make my own bread tomorrow i think, its not hard.

Morning Mangs,

Hope everyone got home from work OK and no one is flooded.

Sounds like its going to hit a lot higher now! They just said 22m on the TV. I hope you guys are going to be OK, get your important stuff out and get to higher ground.

OK so 22m was ipswich. They are talking at least 5 or 6 meters for brisbane though, I hope you are high enough!

Yeah I switched it off when it started repeating itself.

Ahh Noel, you're so old school :)

Bugger, ALDI is on the other side of the river...

But yeah no big deal, I just wanted some food for the two days or so I'll be home, but I got plenty now.

Yeah the check out chick @ woolies said the same. She was pretty hot.

People are just practicing for the impending zombie apocalypse...

That reminds me, I told Jason I was going to check the Zombie flowchart and get back to him. He was waiting a reply....... I hope he's ok.

Morning Mangs,

Just got back home from work. Abandoning the site for today and tomorrow until everything is passed then we'll see how we fared. No idea what to do now though lol.

Hey guys,

Hope you are all staying dry.

There has been so much information on boostcruising.com about the floods and most of it came through before it was even on any of the news channels.

http://www.boostcruising.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=683061&st=1075

All the relevant info will hopefully be in the first post but it is also scattered throughout the thread. There is also lots of willing volunteers on the site who are offering help to anybody that needs it.

Cheers,

Chris.

hopefully this doesn't lead to the zombie apocalypse, i still got 6-8 weeks to wait.

Looking like a nice day today. I don't have to go to work today or tomorrow

alrighty, going to brave the gateway and make my way up to nudgee.

will pick up supplies on my way back (bourbon, coke, beer, jerky and mixed nuts. possibly dvds)

Get far?

f**king awesome day to have off work lol. Spent the morning rearranging my room. Put my desk up and installed Ubuntu on the laptop. Now I'm wondering what to do with the rest of the day. I was thinking about checking out Wivenhoe but I don't know if that's such a smart idea lol.

Wivenhoe viewing area has been closed since monday. Not that it matters, since the bridge over the river just downstream of the dam has been closed since then aswell, i think.

yeah. Guess I'll chill at home. Holy shitballs @ milton maccas. High tide is at 2:30ish apparently.

Closer to 3.30 i think.

Farkin lol at milton. Because lang park is on fire too http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/suncorp-stadium-on-fire/story-e6freuy9-1225986138040

Just got home from tarping and sandbagging the workshop. 4 day weekend!!

    • Middle seat good for a slab of beer or Esky for a road trip. 2x kids, means 1x free seat lol.
    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.
