I got from the valley to home (bray park) along old northern road with no issues, on the radio at work they were goin on about how the valley was flooded we drove most of it and couldn't find a road under at 12pm today. There was more water flooding the roads at high tide yesterday then there was today at high tide. Lets see if i have to work tomorrow.

Oh if anyone on the northside wants somewhere safe to store there car send me a pm, no chance of getting flood waters where i am. Well most of brisbane would be under water if we did get flooded

Success! Got home and house (and cars) are OK :).

Low level brisge is out, upper brindge is split-laned.

Both under water now... Going to go for a ride and check it out.

I live near the river, but im about 6-7 m above bank level it is expected to only go about 1m above that so im not overly worried

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.

Afternoon all

Work's fine, house is fine, dads house (where I'm housesitting for around a month) is fine.

Chermside closed down, only the supermarkets are still open now. Gonna head down soon and get some supplies in case the supply route is out of action for the next few days/weeks

forget the shops

i went at midday and all the bread/milk and such items were gone... none left at all...

people were going crazy, the softdrinks isle and chips were empty and the line to get to the checkout was over an hour at midday...

i heard on the news most supermarkets are closing at 4pm due to lack of stock and personal staff needing to leave...

i have drawn inspiration to download the old kevin kostner movie "water world"

5% complete already, give it another 20 minutes and ill be getting educated on what may be next week...

Petrie woolies still open and plenty of stock...

...unless you want bread, milk, eggs, meat, or vegetables.

Oh well, I have a loaf of bread in the freezer. NFI how old it is, but it'll do for sammiches for lunch :)

Pictures from the Pine River at the Petrie Crossing.

The bridge (that actually crosses the river) is way in the distance, past the "Petrie Mill" and speed limit signs visible in some pictures.

And a vid:

What's the road closures like?

I need to get to Nudgee tomorrow at 11....

Might have to look up the locacl council websites in the morning and find some open roads

Yeah not worth going anywhere.

I luckily work 5 minutes from where I live, and there's no creeks between those two points hahahaha

Just got home from work. Had to go back and sandbag the office and get all the files and computers out of there. I'm still in tomorrow at 6:30 though lol. See how we go tomorrow. My mate has had a look at the map and found that our place is right on the edge of the floodwaters so i might need a place to store the car lol.

try get in, but if water is on the road don't bother.

That's what she said.

You can leave it here if you want ;)

Yeah Colin, the inner west will be rooted if it goes 70's spec. Move your car if you can.

We all have to go in at 8 to lay tarps and put down more sandbags. I'm wondering if I'll be able to even get there if Kedron Brook keeps rising...

The call for work tomorrow is, try get in, but if water is on the road don't bother.

You have a bucket of water ready to splash on the driveway.

    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
    • @Rusty NutshI mate. Do you have a pinout diagram for the na neo auto ecu? 
    • Yeah thats the plan now. 🤞
    • Have a chat with the tuner, you'd want to drive the car straight there.
    • My mechanic installed all the parts and then got it tuned which i think is around the corner from him
