haha all good mate :P I ordered like 3:30 this arvo before I left work anyway, gotta get it done now before I run dry on WPI.

Thank god mate.. otherwise you would have just melted away or have to resort to eating chicken, beef, eggs and weird shit like that.. :D

Shut up :P I know it's just a supplement, but I hate having an eating routine thrown out of rhythm when something isn't available. Lately I've barely been making use of protein shakes and have been relying almost entirely on chicken breast mince (and now Kangaroo mince due to not being able to get chicken) for the bulk of my protein intake.

I just like to make things simple and easier to manage - WPI makes it so much easier.

HAHA!

I love how there are recommendations on servings on a lot of products. Take a scoop morning, lunch, tea......no, just eat.

someone should have told me about the 'stop 1 from your max reps' rule before, the other week i was doing bench and then I got to 7/10 and at the top of 7, i thought "hold on i'm tired maybe ill let it down slowly to rest and then i can push back up" = ended up with holding the bar above my chest, only able to push it up halfway and not high enough to set back on the racks...guy from the next rack came to help me.

hahaha, and you've just encountered pretty much the only use for a spotter ;)

well i was actually benching my lowest weight, but this was at the end of my workout so I kind of did AND didn't take that into account.

Bench doesn't quite work like squats haha. Once you're out of energy, you're finished.

I know that now.......hah....

tonight at the gym i had a bit of a funny moment.

had to do squats, but the squat rack wasnt free so I jumped on the smith. Anyway after the first set, I had real lower back pain. To cut a long story short, after the second and third set, no more pain.

Squats really does cure bad backs..... or maybe better form, not sure.

Just a theory that the experts can correct me on, but I would have thought the fixed bar position of the smith machine would cause all sorts of form issues because the bar should move around to suit your body's movement, not the other way around? Smith machine seems too linearly up and down...

That is correct

    • 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?
