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

All I get from this talk is negative crap, if your trying to say if I think I'll take supps and shit I'll get big. Your far from it.

Some positive...

Supplementing your diet with some nutrients you need can help if you don't have time to prepare food. I like protein powder shakes because they are fast to make. So they have their place as a food source and are good value for that.

Taking so called 'pretend' steroids ie: test boosters is a game of fools however.

Things sold as ZMA and others are just fancy zinc tablets. You need more zinc in your diet if you train. Cenovis do a $6 bottle of 100 tablets from coles if you need some (thats the brand I buy). There is a known ratio of B6 and Magnesium even the cenovis stuff has.

I dont bother and nor want to go near steroids, test boost and hormones. Like you said "time to prepare food" its just not that its also being off site no fridges, no eating schedule guaranteed.

Only things i take are protein, Bcaa, Multi and a fish oil tab.

Fair enough, but from outside the box only just coming in seems a little different :)

Yup going hard, lost 13kg in 7 months, Still a little away from proving a non believer but will get there..

I usually do 1 scoop to 600ml water. Watermelon is good, I'm using blue raspberry which is nice as well. I don't notice any diffrerence with the xtend but I just drink it because I like the taste lawl, so usually lasts me about 6 months.

Currently using Cenovis Vitamin C and Nature's Own Vitamin D (I like chewable stuff). But I went to Coles today and on your advice was about to purchase some Cenovis Zinc (they have a "buy 2 Cenovis, get the 3rd free" offer on at the moment)...but I got sucked into their men's multi which seems to contain the same amount of Zinc/B6 plus a lot of other shit. Here's hoping it doesn't give me headaches like the last multi I tried.

My concern with multis in the past has been their minimal content of each vitamin/mineral, but these are quite large pills (guessing because of the fish oil) and the content was on par with a lot of the Cenovis standalone products.

trouble is that you want to take a dose during the day / breakfast or pre workout and then at night before bed.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
