biggie · 06-06-2005, 12:34 PM

Glad it never gets that bad here. Of course I could do without these 95 degree temps and 90% humidity right now.

ALTRNTV · 06-06-2005, 12:35 PM

Damn. God I love living in So Cal, especially in Oxnard, where the weather is the best. =D

at least youll know that your undercarriage will be clean...sux about everything else though...

rainier · 06-06-2005, 02:05 PM

i live in SOCAL and in my area we ALWAYS get flooding. about that much actually. my front lip would be mostly in the water already but i think thats the way my street was made. so yeah. oh well. ill take pics of how bad it gets in my neighborhood once it rains

ALTRNTV · 06-06-2005, 02:09 PM

Rainier, stop playing around with FWD, buy another S14 already.

**mrmephistopheles** · 06-06-2005, 03:20 PM

Damn. I can't find the pic of my partially submerged 240.

A Spec Products · 06-06-2005, 04:28 PM

I wasn't aware that Six Flags opened a Raging Waters park out there.

At least your RUCAs are sitting nice and cozy in your room right?

Yoshi · 06-06-2005, 04:36 PM

since no one has asked, I will

WTF is up with the OEM S14 rim that looks like it's been colored blue with magic marker?

nismo2491 · 06-06-2005, 04:40 PM

^------???

as for the car, at least its not to the height where its getting inside....

ah, i was awaiting for the one to ask me that....
well, my car been sitting there for 2 weeks now, 2 fridays ago, i was at a local drift event, i was on the last run of the day, car was running great, until...it ran hot

, noticed the needle go to H, got off the track, let it roll in neutral, car shuts off, waits...waits....water boiling out of the reseviour...waits...waits...crank back up, AND LOUD KNOCK!

i think i spun a bearing,...but it was towed home, and didnt have time to change the rims....those are drift practice rims....o yea, i didnt blow a head gasket either, no smoking at all while driving 1-2miles and eventually pulling over for a tow truck instead...

why blue? well i have a base model s14 that i did a 5 lug swap, a friend down the street put some 18s on his s14 se, so he let me have his blue se rims for free.....i cant complain....so they stayed blue...

now, i'm dissappointed cuz i have a lower mileage (26k) ka24de that i just recieved and i cant install cuz of the rain and no garage/carport...

***S14DB*** · 06-07-2005, 12:03 AM

I left school and went thru a puddle like that. Sounded like I was in a submarine.

was it busted before? the flooding doesn't look like it was high enough to fuck the motor up.

its not actually toasted, its knocking cuz of the drift event, but nah....its not that bad...water didnt even reach the bottom of the door, motor is wetless...

jackstands will sink in the grass cuz its soo saturated with water...

Flybert · 06-07-2005, 01:14 AM

Recipe for some rusty frame rails.

ZK · 06-07-2005, 10:14 AM

If the water gets inside the car, it will be real bad... a flooded car is usually considered totalled by insurance companies.

**Phlip** · 06-07-2005, 11:36 AM

Damn, I live in the southeast and it never floods like that where I am

Team Rootbeer · 06-07-2005, 12:34 PM
