Yeah, am noticing the "asthma puffer craze" coming through, its weird how some people work. One customer before their PT session whacked in some sprays, PT asked have you got asthma? client responds with "no, i cant do anything really energetic without having it"

Made me look up addictions to the stuff, but found out it was more the light headed feeling the client liked prior to training......

Strange.

Got friends addicted to nasal sprays and eye drops...they can't function without them. Like any drug used over extensive periods, your body adapts to it eventually and heavier doses are needed in conjunction with the deterioration of the body's natural system for that particular function. Vicious cycle.

What chemical would they be addicted to in the nasal and eye drops?

Have you guys seen that show on TV that is on now about strange addictions?

Amazed how many people are addicted to drinking dishwashing fluid and clothes powder, oh and not to mention Chalk!! The lady even goes opn about what flavour chalk tastes the best!! *white obviously!*

I hate when people say CLEM instead of CLEN.

Or worse, GLEN.

Clen + t3= win apparently. Who has stuffed around with both at the same time?

Hahaha..Guy I know is always trying to sell me Clembuterol... Don't have the heart to correct him

Clen and t3(cytomel) together will hypercharge your metabolism and fat loss but consider compromises in muscle gains, hence experiencing muscle loss. I wouldn't bother with t3 as it may alter your natural production of t3/t4 and potentially lead to hypothyroidism. If it has worked wonders for some people, then I could be wrong.

We had a patient that was taking thyroxine, but the prescriber had given her the wrong dose and dosing schedule, it was picked up when she came back to get her following 3 months supply and she had dropped 19Kg (was almost back to ideal body weight) that stuff shreds fat by turbo-charging your metabolisim. All this from being on 200mcg instead of 100mcg. As mentioned though there is a massive price to pay by supplimenting you natural balance of T3/T4 for that long. I've seen low doses ie 50mcg used for month on/off cycles with no apparent harm, probably as relative as getting testicle cancer from steroids...some poor bastard is going to be unlucky, while a good majority are fine.

Was going to say, it's more the fact they take the place of a natural bodily function, which will cause it to cease/adapt after extended use of the medicine...but as per Terry's post, there are obviously chemicals in them responsible for it. Like most topical medicines, there are recommended time frames of use, e.g. 6-8 weeks. Use it all your life and you'll be on it all your life...

It's scary what people develop an addiction and proceeding immunity to. The addiction to swallowing detergents is probably an onset of OCD compulsions, cleanliness gone way too far. More common is people brushing their teeth multiple times per day or using unnecessary amounts of toothpaste.

The chemical in Nose Spray isn't addictive, it's actually damaging phsyically to the nasal gizzards.

So if you use it too often/too long, damage gets done and you lose things like sense of smell, and you'll find even after stopping use for 6 months your nose is more blocked than normal etc.

Bit different to a dependancy/addiction when its actually damaging.

Eye drops though i can agree with, the body will stop naturally producing its over fluid if you use it for extended periods. It's similar to shaving. Shave every day, your beard etc grows faster. I found shaving every 3rd-4th day, it grew much slower as a result.

Sh*t, any chance you took her blood pressure throughout this time? Would love to see if she was stage 1 or 2 hypertension?

She avoided any follow up appointments with her GP as she liked what was happening with regards to weight loss. The only reason she popped up again was to get more medication. Denied! Go straight to your GP do not pass go.

I have heard this is a massive myth? Any substance to it?

I know a guy at the moment, EATS LIKE A HORSE and is still cutting up due to turbocharging his metabolism.

In addition to the T3/Clen, he is running Tren/Prop (he competes).

Wtf that person has issues... dude wish I was taking it for giggles I hate that feeling but I hate the asthmatic synosis from not breathing more. Stupid chronic asthma!

    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
