was just wondering why society frowns upon the devotion of real anorexics, and in saying that I mean the ones with suficcient devotion to starve themselves thin, and yet society proclaims ad good and just the same sort of madness that it takes to be brilliant and churn out straight sevens at university. Was at a graduation ceremony for honours a while ago and the dux of the class had a gpa of 7 which means she didn't get anything but 7's for the whole degree.

In this day and age of obecity I think we should champion Anorexics with the devotion to stick with it, and frown upon the obece that lack the self discipline to get with the program.

thoughts chris.

Who says that the obese are no less driven than an anorexic?

I would assume that the same disorder that requires/allows you to absolutely destroy yourself would be applicable to a morbidly obese person too.

I don't think that your avaerage person is capable of the dedication that it would take to be corpulent to the same reverse degree.

Any excessiveness is frowned upon by society for good reason, whether it is anorexia, obesity, workaholism, greed, etc, etc.

Different sides of the same coin.

This person who had a high GPA across the board, is there any moderation in this persons life or did they devote everything they had to atttaining those marks?

Sure good marks would indicate a successful future, but against what measure? High paying job but no life outside that job (i.e die alone but rich).

Moderation is the key, but it is so easy to lose sight of.

1. The obece are not driven. Often obecity comes out of a sedentary lifestyle and lazyness more than anythine else. Also the undereducated are far more likely to be obece than the well educated and more fortunate. It tends to be a dizease of the lower calsses and the less socioeconomically endowed groups of society but times they are a changing and that no longer rings true.

2. Thus these people are the ones with devotion. We should really take them around to schools as motivational speakers

3. excessiveness in terms of finding a solution to a problem or artwork tends to be champpioned. Many of the great artists and poets of the world were mentally unwell and yet we appreciate their work.

yes granted everything has a price.

I think another point is how society can turn a blind eye to its set of double standards and the question of how our value system became so skewed. Once again we are brought back to the question of intent and the idea of doing all the right things for all the wrong reasons.

don't know if you'll read this but thanks for the effort in your response.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
