Sorry. Meant ranga col. He's working at hamilton atm. Rain seems to have died off now anyway. We got sorta evacuated from work though. Hope we still get paid though...

Yes we will be paid john as they are sending us home. i have been told we are closed tommorrow as well and to be prepared to not return till sat( well sat for me and monday for you lol)

And thanks for all your help yesterday as well john. That was a most hectic day lol

Get far?

Made it out half way, then got a phone call to say it was cancelled.

Turned back, got beer, bourbon and coke. Marisa is bringing pretzels, mixed nuts and jerkey.

No dvds. Decided to watch season 7 of the office instead

ok so i just got home...

been up in the air all morning delivering supplies into the locker valley and all I can say is "f**k"

we took off from redcliffe aerodrome which was an effort to get too, i saw the damage the pine river has done

then i thought this is bad, we got further over mt glorious and then i saw the real damage

holy shit is all i can say, it is all kinds of screwed up and the rest you cant see cause its still under water

Have you got the entire season 7? I've only got the first few episodes so far. Room mate and I spent most of the last two weeks watching all the seasons.

Sweeeeet. Probably Saturday or Sunday for me as well. I told John to give me a call if we're doing a cleanup on the weekend so that we can get straight back into it on Monday.

I don't know about you guys out there in the comfy chairs and aircon :P, but we're all pretty much on standby until Monday.

No worries with yesterday, mang. I was already saturated from the morning, so I didn't care if I was stuck back out in the rain again. At least we didn't have to move the cars very far!

This would not be a rocket ship but should smash autocad out of the park without trouble. Basically the same as the last one but with more ram and a bit better video card.

Should I go buy a neo turbo for 1/3 of the price of highflowing my current one?

Pickup from about 15 mins from my place...... no flood waters around.......

I can't decide whether I should pick it up tonight or just fob it off and highflow my current one

Have you got the entire season 7? I've only got the first few episodes so far. Room mate and I spent most of the last two weeks watching all the seasons.

I only have the first 8 episodes at the moment.

Will have a look for the other ones tomorrow. Not sure where they are up to in the US

Buy it... then highflow it.

Colin, cruise on Sunday postponed.

Anyone know if they want more volunteers yet? Feeling very awake, could smash some hours overnight

No work for Woolworths for a while. Cash registers are floating around the store.

There is a RSL through there somewhere to the right. That's the Ipswich Motorway to the right.

yer pretty much is, i got my name down, got told they have more then they need but they will call if they need me

In all honesty I don't think offering help for sandbagging at the moment is worth it. They have way more than enough people at the moment.

I'm gonna try and help out where I can over the weekend/early next week when people need help cleaning up in the city/surrounding suburbs once the waters go down. I think we'll need as many people as we can get during that time and I'd be more than happy to help out for a bit, where I can.

Buy it... then highflow it.

Yeah I should be getting it tomorrow. That's what I'm thinking too. Quick cheap fix for now, plus will yield better results from high flowing once I can save the money at my leisure to actually have it high flowed lol.

    • No need to drill any holes. There's plenty of access to reach through and behind all of that steel to "push" from behind with a pulling action on the slide hammer. There's all sorts of attachments you can screw on the end of them.
    • Yea the photos aren't the best. When I was pulling the bumper and headlights out there was a bodyshop guy looking on for it, there is a slight bend behind where the passenger headlight is, but we're talking a few MM and there is a little bit of a bend for the reo. That said it's supposedly well within the "Drill a hole in it and pull it out with a slide hammer to be close enough" and be on our way. The other option is to buy a GTR reo for the GTR bumper bits but this is a $2000+ fix for something Mr Hammer can probably do 99% of the job for and everything will/can line up pretty closely-to-good-enough.
    • That's a write off for sure... Part out? 😛 I kid. It looks like the rad support has a minor minor bend in it too where the rep support sits near. Could just be the photos (and me not wearing my glasses right now). Worst case is you can buy a new radiator support, have it swapped over, and leave the car in paint jail for 12 to 18 months while you build the motor to handle twin turbos or a Harrop SC...
    • It seems the definition of "Gregging" something might need to be expanded?
    • This is why I suggested that there is really nothing that can safely be done in the engine bay at this budget level. Just the work to reassure yourself that the engine won't instantly crap itself the moment the boost gets turned up will wear out the piggy bank long before the first turbo gets installed. Spend $10k and still not have any extra performance? My tip is a version of our standard advice from 15 years ago about buying a GTR, which is not to buy one unless you can afford to buy two. The new version is not to modify a GTR unless you have all the funds required to do it all at once, properly, and enough to rebuild it after it blows up.
