I had an interesting discussion about cheat meals recently.

Many people see them as an out for people who simply cannot strictly diet.

This isn't true, in fact, cheat meals serve a key purpose (or a dual purpose):

1: They trick your body into thinking that it is getting ample nutrients/calories, therefore, your body is less likely to go into starvation mode and do its absolute best to hold onto fat stores.

2: They keep you sane/more likely to stick to your diet and can be motivating. I especially look forward to my cheat meals whilst cutting.

Cheat meals are the safer option when compared to 'cheat days', you risk binging too hard on a cheat day lol. But if you can keep it within reason and it works, why not?

good news... I was undecided on going to dinner tonight as I know it will be a massive eat fest... and a few beers will get consumed no doubt

Budapest in Elsternwick... great Hungarian food but massive portions and when its in front of me I just keep eating lol... so I'm trying to eat very light today in preparation

been making good progress lately, slowly cutting back for summer... I've tried last minute cuts before and its always been a failure... I don't function very well when I haven't had enough to eat, I get grumpy and have crap workouts so still trying to find the best balance

lol at Jay Cutler... he really is a freak... I read that in the first year he took up BB'ing he put on about 20kg of muscle! (can't remember exact number but it was ridiculous)

Ye it has good effect on metabolism and serves to give the body a bit of a kick.

Plus one huge gorge/cheat meal isn't really going to alter the weeks diet much at all.

I'll ask the dude @ work if i can chuck up some of his pics - strict as 40yo with diet etc. He gives himself 1hr per week to "go nuts" and eat anything and everything (like 1 large pizza, 3 icecream cones and maybe 2-3 cans of coke) except when prepping for a comp. Says it hasnt affected him at all and is a good 'break'.

I got a SKINS top and it does a good job of keeping the chill out when running cold winter nights...without restricting breathing. Beats ye olde topless running and hypothermia.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
