And yes I jump to conclusions all the time, especially when led to those conclusions.
My post is worded based on how many beers I have consumed at that given point of the day. I'm a bit of a drunk. I apologize if it wasn't worded to standard. I was around 6 Heinekens at the time. Was also busy watching jungle book with my kids. Now that one is asleep and my wife is working with the other to go to sleep I'm in the play room with Anki overdrive. Picked up the jump kit and a few more straight a ways earlier today ftw.

No sweat.What happens on the ice, stays on the ice as we say in hockey land.

I don't know much about hockey, but I hope thats not like when I was a kid growing up in WV where they would say, "what happens out in the barn, stays out in the barn"...

Felix0121,

You have no apologies to make for your original thread post, or your English. And you have every right to be proud of your country. You did just fine!

Car was find but he'll if I saw a dip of water and I was driving I'd pull over and say **** it lol.

I drowned my 350z. Had the bumper insert and hit water well over a foot deep.
After three months in and out of the dealer, I gave up and traded for the 370.
Replaced engine, cats, BCM and on and on. Worst nightmare I've ever been through.

The driver should have had the Nismo R Tune intakes with the secondary water by-pass filters that help to prevent water ingestion in the the event that the primary intake filters are submerged in water.
