Surgeon said given the level of soft tissue damage 90-100 degree clockwise rotation around the ankle and spiral fracture oft he fib, that I should aim to be back to light jogging around the 12mth mark.... Showed him!

He said it will never quite be 100%.

Kate did hers when she was 12, a simpler break without as much soft tissue damage (the real issue) and hers still swells from time to time and can occasionally roll if she's not careful.

That said, I've already done some 2 and 3k jogs and from the moment the diastases screw was out in January (7screws and a plate remain) I've been on it and using it.

Then after talking to you guys, started squatting and DL lightly and slowly building it up. I'd like to get some half decent leg/back strength and be able to jog daily like I was and I'll be happy, I honestly think all that is achievable but that I might not be ever able to fully flat out sprint, rapid direction change sprint again sort of thing, a very brisk run in one direction seems fine but the stability isn't there for rapid direction changes yet.

Could always be worse. That's what I keep thinking about my shoulder to stay positive - someone, somewhere, has got it worse.

And when I need motivation or renewed appreciation for what I do have, I watch this:

Oh for sure man I know others have it worse, I still have my foot and it pretty much works, happy days for me.

I don't lack motivation or drive, I'm ahead of the curve the surgeon set, and even if it was a conservative one,. I'll take it as a win. There was never any chance that a busted foot was going to stop me exercising and doing what I enjoy.

Like eating 2 lunches today because that's just how I roll...

    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
    • thanks, will conduct myself accordingly. i unfortunately put about 150 miles on the car before reading this thread again, however no PS issues, and definitely no turbo issues. it spools normally and still feels fast to me, probably because my previous car was an N/A auto sedan...gonna go fix the PS vacuum line though lol. safe to say, got what i came to this thread for. thanks  
    • Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf
    • You'lll likely have to make do with R33 GTR for engine/tranny stuff, and Stagea for the body. I don't know that there's even been an actual diagram seen in the wild.
    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
