Willis Island automatic weather station has called it a day, they usually pack it in at around 90 knots.

Used to have an underground concrete bunker but it was removed, think I'd prefer that over the new stuff built there.

Be interested to see how much is still standing.

if i was one of you guys that was in the evacuation zone... i'd pack up my shit and get the fck out of their..

hope your all ok though... looks like its going to be one mean fking bish...

keep checking www.bom.gov.au

Have a mate in South Townsville off Boundary Street tell me they had surge waters coming through the street at 10 am today. They packed up and got out. Parents place in Idalia is sandbagged the sh!t up, so hopefully should be alright.

All servos are closed and I heard the highway to Bowen is closed? Then I saw plenty of people heading west towards the Towers??? I don't know why you would bother, nothing there is rated to any form of cyclone. I'm praying it doesn't swing south anymore but there is nothing more to do than sit tight and wait this out. Goodluck dudes!

They will head for the towers because it will be the best way to go south, I would go as far as hughenden if I were there.

Its just starting to get breazy here (kirwan townsville). Not hugely worried though i've got plenty of beer and a salami and the car is safely in the carport.

Looking at the tracking map even Mt Isa is going to get some! thats one f*ck off big storm to get that far!

Phil, youve done the matress thing with your car, probably the best and only thing you can do.

Magnetic Island hidden by rain now, would be pretty rough over there, did they evac everyone off there?

My Weather app, current data (wind speed):

Mackay - 30km/h

Townsville - 46km/h

Cairns- 11km/h

Bowen 46km/h

So up north of the cyclone is defenitly experiencing "the calm before the storm"

    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
