Protein, creatine & BCAA's are what its all about :)

Using Max's supersize protein 5kg 3-flavour pack (cookies & cream is SO awesome!!), with milk

Some sort of ebay creatine powder

And my 2kg amino acid mix from Mr.Supps, consisting of:

- 100g D-aspartic acid

- 250g beta alanine

- 250g L-tyrosine

- 250g creatine

- 250g L-carnitine

- 250g L-glutamine

- 250g L-leucine

- 250g glycerol

Plus take multi vitamins, iron tabs, ZMA tabs, and a little bit of Toco-8 powder in my post-shake with a tablespoon of the AA mix

Found Double-T Sports Nitromine (360 tabs - pretty much amino acid tablets) for $9 a bottle from Supplements Direct (usually $90! wtf??) so I grabbed a few bottles of that with the Toco-8

snake oils. meh. Ive got no problem taking plenty of amino acids, more is > than none :)

If you can carry you shopping your not buying enough food. If you cannot carry your shopping your not lifting enough. And go.

Man that's a lot of stuff...

Also the glycerol isn't an amino acid just incase you thought it was...

yeah I know :)

bulk buy of the AA's is actually cheap in all honesty, 2+kg was $~90 and it'll last aaaagggggeeees. Mixed in one big tub.

protein and creatine is as it should be.

the tabs? well, ..... taking them "just because I can" :)

- the iron, zma and toco8 is because I reckon my testosterone levels are low due to a number of reasons.

- multi V's 'cause I think its better to take one then not ;)

- Nitromine, well Im a sucker ;) snake oils!!!

* the glycerol is meant to help get the protein/aminos into the muscles? ... "taking glycerol in supplemental form quickly improves hydration and the absorption of other supplements that are taken with it."

If you want a test-booster, grab some dianabol or Trenbolone or Oxandrolone...

Isn't just about any "test-booster" legally purchasable on the Australian market nothing more than snake oil anyway?

No; never!! - my 2kg AA mix will last a year, and cost something like $96 all up :)

I dont see the issue - protein, bcaa, creatine, vitamins......

It's entirely the cost when you compare it to something like chicken breast, at least considering you still need to consume food even if you're taking all those supps.

Creatine - Ive had since start of the year

Ammino mix - will last a year (10g per shake makes 200 shakes!), and for the bulk size thats pretty cheap in all honesty

Protein powder - IMO you're crazy NOT to take that shit post-workout, plus the cookies & cream is like a party in my mouth but you're all not on the vip list (sorry!)

Multi V's - Ive always taken them

the rest isnt needed :) granted; snake oils* thought Id try the toco-8 and zma tho as a once-off.

you all jelly at my knees of fury & not needing to squat - that must be it. =p

as for cost, ebay is your friend ;)

hey if you have the money and time to use it, go for it. It might be that 2% that makes a difference.

However unless i was a competing bodybuilder or elite athlete of some sort then i'll spend that 2% elsewhere, usually at jb hifi

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it

      Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
