I was trying to go ATG as in calves touching hammys, basically as low as I can go, I find that easier than stopping half way down or a bit below parralell which feels like it would be a heap of pressure on the knees.

Not yet, considering it though. Current physio has me doing nerve glide/mobility exercises but after paying close attention during stretching etc I feel as though it's coming from the lower back.

been to a chiropractor?

my little brother had a back issue when he was younger, turned out his hip was out of place slightly resulting in one leg being longer then the other.

My legs are out by around 3cm every time I get trigger point :(

as low as you can go and as low as you can go with correct technique differ vastly. going ATG and compromising form isn't a good thing.

Even though you stretch etc. daily, do you feel you're making any significant progress? Maybe you need to review what you're doing if it isn't effective?

Buy starting strength or something that explains technique in depth, that way you can refer to it whenever you're in doubt to coach yourself.

I'm not sure if this will answer your question Dan, but I think these videos are worth a watch anyway. I watched them last night as I'm having an issue with my knee bending in during squats. It's a five part series called 'So you think you can squat' Here's a link to the first one

Easier to just go and see Matt again. All I need to know is if the butt should be rounding in under/tucking under naturally or whether that should be avoided.

I reckon that's a good idea.

I dont think It's natural to the squat, you're not squatting any lower, you're just pushing your arse down. That's my guess. I'll let someone in the know answer.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
