my knees are killing me

anyone know what 24/7 insane pain feels like after 2 decade?

plus my hips are going out on me

falling apart

:)

sad

I still remember what 24/7 pain felt like for 3+ months. Thats bad enough ... so I have sincere pity for ya dude.

I wake up sometimes with pains in my shoulder after breaking it earlier this year. Bones are heales, but its mostly ligament and muscle repair needed. I know the pain will diminish eventually.

I was working with the weights last night, which explains the early morning pains/discomfort keeping me awake ... but they don't call it rehab for nothing! The pain will pass and I'll get the strength back again.

Then again, the surgeons and physio guys all said it was my fitness and health that helped me cope with the injury and heal so much quicker. I was using the arm again after 4 weeks (not 6-8) and had strength back after 6 weeks (not up to 3 months), and I'm back on the weights after 4 months (not 6-12 months). Not trying to brag mate, but I'm so happy I'm one of those fast healers.

6 years ago I broke and dislocated my right leg from the hip when I t-boned a car which failed to give way. Also suffered some head injuries and loss of memory ... together with lots of bruising and bashing. Took me 6 months to walk again and over a year to jog/run again. And that is WITH protective riding gear. Can't imagine what would have happened if I rode in t-shirts and jeans like all the other fools do!

I know its no consolation for you, but we've all got problems one form or another when we hit 30+ :)

I know how you feel, even in the smallest way. Its not so much the injury/handicap, but the loss of lifestyle/activities that shits ya. Thats always my motivation to move forward with my recovery of any injury.

BTW, when do ya hear how the dyno session is going? :)

genious :P

collected most of my sound system today.

subs dont fit. stupid air purifier.

might have to go see ric, get all that shit pulled out and the new stuff put in.

should make a fair decent bit of noise. :laugh:

car started to do it again once it warmed up!

supposed coilpacks?

try running the car without the valley cover on. coilpacks will be getting too hot

IMO, hit a wrecker up (or someone on here) and get a set of factory ones and dont run the valley cover

186kw at boostwerx

need ............... better ....................... cat-con......verter

* choking * cough-gasp

poor stagea :geek:

easy 200kw with proper freeflowing cat.

so, do that and 1hr back on the dyno. soon

yeah defiantly go see Ric he loves to hear from you guys

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
