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.

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
