All too much pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo in this thread. Find something you enjoy that keeps you active and do it as much as you can. Eat healthy and enjoy the occasional sin. I once had eight months training so hard I forgot about alcohol and was too knackered to think about sex, and all I got was a national open silver medal in cycling. Wasn't worth it I tell yas. Well it was but it wasn't. National coach Charlie Walsh didn't want someone my age (26) on the national touring squad so i had to pay my own way to race OS. Blew it off and did Eng degree instead.

Been so up and down the weight ladder. Grunt Sniper carrying 65kg combat load for up to 9 months a year in the scrub I ate everything in sight and smashed weights until I was 110kg of pure Rugby prop love muscle able to run 5km in 19min. Then cycling I got down to 83kg of lean mean peddlin' machine able to sprint to over 80kmh and run 5km in 16min. Yesterday I almost walked 2km without stopping but needed a break from the pain for a couple of minutes. Took me 45 min and felt like I'd never get home. Stay healthy and well for the right reasons, so you can enjoy stuff or achieve real goals. Live you life training so you can train harder and you may just miss out on good bits.

Healthy drinking would be for every beer have a nice single malt scotch like the Glenmorangie with a glass of water as well. Damn you can put a lot away like that without pain in the morning. I sometimes add a glass of red wine too but just for the meal.

From what I hear of Pete's drinking pace he needs a camelback for the water supply...... and maybe one for the scotch too.

Wow.. go Fatz.. awsome how youre sticking too it!

im failing slowly... putting weight on again

started eating more even after work... stopped goin for runs for 2 weeeks now. Its been too cold and that was my excuse. WEIGHT has NO EXCUSES! gonna start it up again.

doing well fatz. keep it up.

it was brought up that doing cardio after a weight training session would send the body into anabolic shock. this is and isn’t true if you have take in correct pre work out nutrition you will have adequate energy store to complete 15-20 mins of cardio training after weights.

my sister eats junk when she finds shes not losing weight as much as she was. apparently it gives your metabolism a buzz or something and gets it working a bit faster, im not sure of the details... im a crappy listener.

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
    • Take the fall as a warning sign for future endeavours  Stay safe mate
    • hi mate, HKS cooler piping still available by any chance?
