This was a very good idea Ash, I actually think this will help me a lot as I can not only watch how I've changed but it will also provide some drive in the sense that I've now got to show you f**kers

Also, did they sell bikes for Men where you got that?

you initiate the lift with your legs but you must keep your back tight so that your hips don't rise too early in the lift (before the bar leaves the floor)... then as your legs straighten and your hip

Heh, cheers mate :) though it's a little slower than I'd like. Plus I'm hitting a shitty plateau undoubtedly caused by not eating enough unsure.gif

Just gotta push through this obliterated spine bullshit and I'm all G though :D

Alrighty, well now that (for all intents and purposes) NYE is past, I'm gonna start making a solid effort at putting on some mass. So far I've been more or less keeping it lean as fark, which is slow going but more appealing aesthetically. From here on for a while I'm going to aim for that 80kg+ then cut back whatever fat I've put on in the process.

Since I'm the disorganised mayor of struggle town, as well as having depleted my current WPI, I've gone and got myself some Ultimate Nutrition Muscle Juice....Only taking it in half the suggested serving size, as logic suggests and advised by the guy in the store I got it from. This should help out with my otherwise average (but healthy) diet, providing plenty of carbs (not all shitty sugars either) while still giving me around the same protein as I was getting beforehand.

Should also help this strength plateau I've hit due to not growing enough or having energy :(

Agree totally^

I got it in my head that I wanted to weigh more and when I started stacking on the kilos, mostly fat with a bit of muscle, it was good for football and confidence but that's about it. I lost my visible abs and it was depressing looking at rolls of skin when sitting down (I wasn't "fat" by any means of the word, still trim and toned looking compared to the average person and nothing of a "gut", but when you go from 82kg to 89kg you certainly notice the difference in muscle tone). Cut all the way back to 82kg again and, I much prefer this.

So yeah, let the muscle put on the weight...it will happen, is happening. I know what you're chasing Troy, and if your goals are still the same, you'll be much happier if it's not fat that's increasing the numbers on the scales. Nothing wrong with doing it in bulk and cut phases, but you can certainly just go down the path of gaining lean muscle without them.

I think alot of people just try and stack the pounds on requardless weather its muscle or fat to prove to themselves that they can actually do it

then once they get there they realise that this isnt the kind of weight they wanted and that being heavier is not all it cracked up to be

i know this was the case for me, at 96kg i really started to feel the strain on my body when running not just tiring quicker but i also developed shin splints which pretty much stops you from running all together

my abs also disappeared and i started to outgrow alot of my pants...very frigan annoying as i hate spending lots of money on clothes

its all good and well to put on 10kg in 6 months but very rarely is it going to be mostly muscle (unless ur a juice monkey)

at the end of the day u just gotta be happy with what u see in the mirror and over time you will slowly grow lean muscle, its a slow process but it WILL and is happening all the time

be patient it will happen :thumbsup:

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
