the doc told me there is a virus going around atm with the symptoms like mine.. nausea/vomiting/diarrhea for the first few days and then start developing flu like symptoms such as sore throat/cough/aches! apparently it originated i queensland

So its just a virus? I got the "flu llike" symptoms today had to take the day off work :)

Maybe we made out or something, you told me you were a women! I was drunk what could I say

dont worry.. its not your fault im irresistable :D haha

update- this morning i went for my ultrasound.. and before anyone of you guys make a joke, NO im not pregnant :D

the lady conducting the test said that my liver is larger than normal.. and looks like i have a disease called Fatty liver! it is common in western countries because of our high fat diets! the disease is caused from excessive weight in the mid region depositing fat into your liver.. which aint good!

im only 22.. weigh around 112kg's now but about 3 months ago i was about 120kg's! it is a big wake up call for me.. i need to make some big lifestyle changes.. mainly diet!! i always used to be pretty fit.. until around a mid last year.. i weighed 92kg's back then! i hurt my knee playing sport, which made me have to stop playing sport for around 6 months.. i also was eating pretty bad! i gained so much weight so fast it obviously wasnt healthy!! 30 odd kilos in a year

hopefully i can get my health back in order soon.. and most important of all.. maintain it!!

i dont think fatty liver disease has caused me to get sick so often in the past 2 months.. its just bad luck!! sounds like alot of other people have been sick just like me! i think im getting to the end of my latest sickness! and i hope it stays away for a long time!! i just want to feel good for a while!! lol

So it ain't the black lung nor is it AIDS?

I don't buy that whitchs doctors view of Fatty Liver whatchmacallit........

P.S

If you train with Dan,

He likes his bench press spotters to go Commando if you know what I mean :P:laugh::(

Well its not how much fat you have its where the fat is concentrated as your doc said the fat around your gut is what deposits the crap into your liver and plenty of other volitile areas.

Thats quite a size for your height.

I stopped playing competetive sport a few years ago and was always lean whilst competing. When you stop that metabolism just slows real fast and you find yourself getting fat and your muscle wastes away.

I hate cardio if your in the same boat best to do some weights and mix in some boxing or kick boxing. I was doing muay thai and found that to get me in shape quicker then anything.

Giving up food, alcohol can be impossible put you can keep doing this stuff in moderation for much longer if you get enough healthy excercise what ever it may be.

Mike the old tea bag trick when spotting on the bench always does wonders for the spirit.

ur right on the money there!!

i carry my weight really well... if u were to see me you wouldnt think i would have a problem.. but the fat i do have is concentrated around my gut!

eating healthy aint too bad! i have gotton through the last few days pretty easily.. lets hope it lasts

Hope it all goes well ey

I'm in the same boat, I'm the same weight as you but I'm a bit shorter and I don't have fatty organs (that I know of)...

so I'm cutting back to 1 meal a day, and trying to go out for a walk everyday... having the new dog helps to get me out,

Anyways good luck:thumbsup:

About 6 weeks ago I was sick for 4 weeks straight. First 3 weeks it was cold symptons, then i was well for 2 days before a mixture of cold and hayfever kicked in and that was hell nasty. Nose running like a tap, and I was a total mess at work.

At the time of me being sick, pretty much everyone else in my office was sick too. When I got better for those 2 days, a new girl started at work and I think she brought in something new which triggered off the other sickness.

Thank heavens I'm all good now.

feeling ill again this morning!! but i dont think it is a virus or anything!

im on medication for weight loss (duromine) its basically a legal form of speed!! when i researched it the other day i found out about some side effects.. so i have decided to stop using it!!

so i could just be feeling ill due to my body coming down from the 'legal speed'

has anyone else been on duromine??

feeling HEAPS better today!! i think my body was just expelling the Duromine!

had an awesome sleep in this morning.. which is somethig i havnt been able to do for ages! coz the duromine was effecting my sleep!!

    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
    • A full Veilside kitted JZA80 Supra in Meriken park in Kobe city a few weeks back
    • Its a well known brand in New Zealand; its a rebrand of the Rhino RAV3.  I don't know what the wiring difference *is* between the rev.1 (installed about 15 years ago) and rev.2; but as you say I would think its reasonable that it uses the same immobiliser relay circuits. I had a look but couldnt see a similar harness; but didnt move things around since I didnt want to mess with it   It was one of AVS well known Authorised Installers; I spoke to AVS themselves about it but theyre unsure hence seeking advice more so from the skyline community who are more familiar with the actual car and its wiring. Im in Auckland; but the installer is on the other side of the city so hes very reluctant to come back to even look at it to confirm something isnt connected into the wrong wire.  I dont want to drop the name since they *did* do a really good job for the most part. Everything is very tidy and he fully replaced all the alarm wiring, all the sensors, the wiring to the door motors, installed a switch which was never installed in the first place...really happy with the alarm install itself..just not this one issue. We all make mistakes, if it is the alarm, I just want my fuel pump getting proper switched, fused, power as it was; without having to shell out for an auto electrician to switch a wire and tell me it was the alarm. 
    • Even with the piston at TDC there was room for it to drop, but I don't think it can drop fully into the cylinder, the problem you have is that you need something pushing against the valve to hold it up so you have enough room to put the new stem seal on and the spring etc.  I used compressed air only because putting rope in the cylinder seemed a bit risky to me, I know people have done it countless times before like this. Overall it's a pain in the ass job. Honestly you'd probably be better off taking the head off because the risk of dropping something in the engine and the finicky-ness of it all is very stressful. If you are going to attempt it though i 10000% recommend a 36050 valve spring/keeper tool. I had both the traditional lever type and after doing 1 cylinder it was absolute pain to get those valve keepers in place, even with 2 people. That 36050 is amazing, you do have to push hard to get them in place but it works perfectly almost every time. Back to my actual issue I think my engine is just tired and old and the rings have gone bad. The comp numbers (cold, no oil) were: Cyl 1 -129psi Cyl 2 - 133psi Cyl 3 - 138psi Cyl 4 - 137psi Cyl 5 - 157psi Cyl 6 - 142psi   Cylinder 5 and 6 having the most carbon on them.
    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
