How is everyone


Recommended Posts

It's just crazy!

I live in Farrer next to the reserve and the fire got pretty damn close! Heaps of fences on fire but luckily no houses.

One of my mates from work spent Saturday afternoon fighting the fire near his mum's place. They managed to save it but lost the neighbours house who was away on holliday. Eventualy the cops just ordered them to leave.

What shits me the most is the low lifes who have been looting places!

If anyone can spare their time, spare bedroom etc. ring Canberra Connect on 132281. I got told that they will probably need people tommorow (Monday) in the evacuation centres to relieve current staff etc.

I offered my house but they only want people with spare rooms at this stage.

However if anyone on here needs a place to stay we have a sofa bed and couches etc. just PM me.

I hope everyone is ok!

    • I'll just leave this with, holy shit, those cars at work are awesome, and this will look wicked!
    • Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...
    • Do you have any before and after photos? That's $200 just for the hydro blasting?
    • It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
