You carb fanatics will be happier with the basis for my planned diet starting tomorrow...

Sorry Birds, cutting out the pasta from what you discussed with me the other week just won't cut it haha. Ironically it wouldn't be enough :P

You are still getting carbs in there :), just a very small amount.

Try to aim for 35g protein per meal, that helps with muscle development according to some recent scientific research.

Also your meal sizes do look quite small, perhaps you should merge some meals together? I'd consider using less protein powder and more real food but see how it works for you.

They are a little small, but just going with whatever makes me feel better for sustainability lol. Plenty of room to change shit around :) the snack serving of WPI is immediately post-workout, while the other 2 scoops are consumed while I drive to work as my breakfast. I have a liquid breakfast as lately I've been getting horrible sleep so I'm sacrificing the time it'd take for a normal breakfast fire another 30 mins sleep heh

ok so while I've grown out of the "carbs are the devil" bullshit, I still firmly believe that white wheat flour is the reason we can't have nice things. I feel like a big bag of shit after eating a bunch of ANZAC biscuits. Mouth has dried out like crazy too :(

Oh well, looks like I've got no issues demolishing ludicrous amounts of weet bix in one sitting, but I can't have a few biscuits without hating life LOL.

Carbs aren't evil

Fats aren't evil

Carbs and fats are evil

Well, as long as you get enough protein to maintain your muscle and don't blow out your remaining carb and fat macros...and staying under your BMR, should be fine lol

Bought some last night. I feel so bad for ditching paleo, I was really enjoying it. Those biscuits are pretty good though.

Definitely agree on that;but.......it's sooo goooooood :yes:

Surely that much fat in one go would play havoc on your digestive system though lol. Would definitely need to compliment it with fibre (celery??) and plenty of fluids hahaha

The amount of fibre I have is phenomenal i.e. oats, flaxseed meal, yoghurt, heaps of broccoli, brazil nuts. But anyway, the calorie content is destructive (reminds of the day when I had 1 kg of brazil nuts and ended up going to the toilet 6 times within 18 hours). Much more calories than the average person in 1 sitting.

Lately I've upped my calories to around 4500-5000 a day just for the fact I want to slightly put on more size without too much sacrifices of my stomach becoming a coffee table hehe. I'm probably at around 16% body fat now.

    • To plug the hole. The engine plant may not have known whether the car it was going into had a gauge or not. It was a long time ago and the integrations might not have been fully modern. Or they might not have cared because the extra inventory and processes to save a few cents on the sender might have cost more anyway. But please tell me you are not still confusing the idea of a pressure gauge sender, and an oil pressure light switch. The switch will be out there. In a separate hole. Probably with only one wire running to it. Running the light.
    • Blower needs to go low on the exhaust side, displacing the AC and PS, which you have to decide whether you want to keep and how and where to relocate if you do. Electric option for PS is, at least, helpful. Sadly, there is no workable 12V electric AC of any value. Whilst the blower is the last compression step before the throttle, and so it might seem a good idea to have it near the inlet manifold (as mentioned above), you probably want it to go through an intercooler first, so, having it on the opposite side of the car facilitates that air flow path. The turbo discharges into the blower, so proximity of the turbo's compressor outlet to the blower's inlet is nice. But then you might want to intercool that too, before boosting it again....which would probably be a ball ache. Routing pipes out to the front and back could be a bit shit. If there was room for (at least) a small (but preferably larger) water to air core on that side, then that would probably be the best approach. I guess a reasonable alternative would be to locate the blower where the alternator is (more or less, associated with the inlet manifold, per Matt's thought), and somehow incorporate a water to air core into the manifold, sort of like they do for modern blown V8s. The big difference here though is that those V8s have only the one throttle (upstream the blower) and only the one compression step (the blower) and no need for too much in the way of bypass/blowoff valves. Whereas in a twin charged 6, you do need to think about one or two bypass valves associated with the 2 compressors and you would prefer to have the intercooling done before the air has to pass through the throttle. You'd like the throttle to work approx the same no matter what the compression is doing. But if it is located in hot air stream before a cooler, then sometimes the air will be real hot, sometimes it will be quite cool, and the throttle mapping/response will be quite different between those two cases. The throttle, if sized for hot air, would be too large for cold conditions. It's all a ball ache.
    • Package SC on exhaust side. Remote mount turbo. Still a fair bit of room when you get creative on the inlet side of the motor too. Especially if you can get really creative with the welding, and effectively build it into the bottom of the inlet manifold. Would definitely take some design work, and some trial and error, to make sure flow works well still! Might be easier to just start with the Nissan March though... All the work is already done for you...
    • I'll sit down and get a post together 😁
    • The factory oil pressure sender is no longer in the car that's what is confusing me. In the Taarks adapter I have an aftermarket Bosch style pressure/temp sender and the factory temp sender only. Oil pressure is perfect. Where does the factory oil temp sender go to if there were never any gauges? Why was it there from the factory?
