happy new year everyone, first of all :)

now, hang-overs aside... has anyone been having headaches these past few weeks? last for a few days to week? People who almost never get headaches?

I've had this headache, and some general aches (back/neck) for the past week, and a wide range of friends have also said they've been having headaches they can't shake, even my brother as well.

My girlfriend thinks it might be the bushfire smoke? Which i think might be a good start, as my friends don't all know each other. In other words, it wouldn't be like, we were all at the same party, and all ate the same dodgy oysters. It's a wide mix of people, different parts of melbourne, etc...

I NEVER get headaches, so this is VERY strange to me as it's lasted for so long (bout 8 days now). And i find it very strange that all these other people i know are also having headaches, when they don't get them.

The only universal thing we could all have been exposed too would be the bushfire smoke, unless there is some other virus doing the rounds in melbourne?

anyone else have similar problems?

cheers,

daniel

I've been getting a very sore throat if I sleep with the window open.

Close the window = problem solved.

The major cause of headaches, is mild dehydration.

If your body is having to work a tiny bit harder to process all the smoke which is being pumped into it, and you're not drinking enough water to accomodate, then this will lead to headaches.

The heat by itself also plays a big part in this.

answer?

drink more water. :)

You'd probably need a really good masage from the Planet Holywood or something like that :).

I think you mean The Daily Planet....or so i've been told. :):)

Back on topic, yeah i've been getting little headaches, and i never get them unless i'm dehydrated. My prescription, drink more water and post back in a week. :D

The smoke will not be helping, as it lowers the oxygen levels and makes you have to breath harder. The dry heat that we have been having will also dehydrate you a lot quicker, and you will not notice it. I have found that on the hot days that we have been having, I can lose up to 6 Kg's from 9 am in the morning to 7 at night, just from water loss, if I do not drink enough during the day (I tend to drink around 6 liters of water each day).

maybe it's a little comedown for running around and shit (i haven't drunk for over a year) -

i do actually drink a lot of water. When i'm home, i always have a full water bottle around, and constantly take swigs of that.

I also drink a fair bit of water at work because we have those taps that chill the water.

And i'm not an every day coffee/tea drinker. Might have a tea or coffee, 2-3 times a week. Sometimes maybe once a week.

back/neck aches part of dehydration as well?

and just throwing it out there, anyone know much about malaria? i have another theory :wave:

you been getting bushfire smoke up there? it's really the only environmental (as in, living conditions, not in the conservation sense) constant... unless there is some bug/virus floating around...

EDIT: and i take it you only have headaches rarely? have u had a headache for a while? any other problems? i friend of mine was different in that he was having the breathing difficulties. Which obviously points a lot more strongly to the bushfire smoke. But had the headache troubles as well, same as his girlfriend. My girlfriend seems to be fine.

it's quite intriguing.

^ i haven't drunk for a year. i don't take anything, and i don't smoke.

It's not due to substance abuse, that's for sure.

EDIT: i think i'm slow, you mean, my problem is that i DON'T drink?

Guy's its caused by your MOBILE PHONE!!

You have been using more lately cause its Xmas and your ringing your mum etc etc.

SERIOUSLY!! In case you dont realise, it transmits RF power up near the same frequency that your microwave does that heats stuff!

Yeah I know its safe and proven by world experts to not be able to effect you etc etc - BUT its BULL!

Who is going to be first to admit that one of the worlds greatest profit makers could adversley affect anyone?

NOT a Govt that owns Telstra anyway.

If you want to know why I may? have any credibility see my website here:- http://www.cqdx11.com

Since GSM operates in 900 MHz & 1800 MHz bands using a maximum power of 2 watt for 900MHz and 1 watt for 1800Mhz, and Microwave ovens usually operate around 2.45GHz and generate around 700 watts i don't think you'll cook much with a phone.

      Ah. OK. I take it back. I hadn't looked closely at the R33/4 arms and presumed that GKTech did as GKTech do everywhere else, which is to use sphericals there. The poly bushings are made to be 100% interchangeable, should use the standard bolt just fine. Every other bush in every other place in pretty much every other car, does.

      @silviaz Ok cool, so much easier with a video. I can see why this video would be confusing for new players.   It is obvious that this entire bonnet is going to be resprayed, have a look in the background around 2:05, you can see a bunch of bare metal on the left side of the bonnet.  It's not an issue for the primer being laid down on the non-prepped clear on the bonnet. It will be sanded off at a later stage.  This might not be obvious to new players, but working on bare metal and factory paint in this instance, the factory paint is like a mountain and the bare metal is a huge valley. The bonnet needs to be levelled flat before it receives it's final stage of colour and clear coat. During this levelling process, the primer that is landing on the clear that you are worried about will be removed.  Also, this guy is out of control. Zero PPE while spraying, maybe he is a good example overall about what not to do lol.

      Ok I FINALLY found a video lol. This took way longer than it should have as I could have sworn I saw multiple videos like this. I kept finding the completely opposite (the correct way of doing this). I wouldn't be surprised if I f**ked this up somehow.  I just realised where I've been getting confused and even with other things I work on. I haven't been doing things the regular way instead I'm going a roundabout way of doing things, like putting epoxy primer first then filler for example instead of putting just filler then primer on top of that, then wondering what happens if I get that primer on the clear coat that I haven't sanded yet. This was a bit of an epiphany 😂  But anyways, here this video. Time stamp, 2:56, some of the primer lands on the paint unscuffed above. You can see from the reflection it looks shiny.

      It does, this part circled in red. I assume the OEM bolt might not work well with the poly bushing because the dimensions may be different?

      The J arm doesn't have bushes either. Assuming that by "J arm" you mean the part of the upright that runs down from the upper arm's outer bushes to the top of the hub. That has a kingpin style bearing in it. If you meant the lower control arm, it has 1 bush, at its inner end. If you have PU in there, that is superior to Nismo rubber. If you meant the caster/tension rod - it has 1x bush at the front end, and again PU is superior to Nismo rubber. But as I said above, I would definitely get the GKTech arms for that, as sphericals slay all other options there.
