Nick wrapped for the first time.

He needs to get used to them, Max went easy on him

you can tell Max knows what he's doing with those wraps... good for me as they take some of the pressure off my knees... can't wait to have a crack at 200kg

Australia Day 2007 I held my first comp, and I've had one every Australia Day since, except this one.

On that first one we had 8 competitors, here is what they squatted

Neil 90kg

Ghosty 105kg

Cory 105kg

Jovi 120kg

Adam 130kg

Simon 140kg

Herc 140kg

Benny 145kg

All lifts were PB's at the time, some by a long way.Move forward to 2013, heres who was in the gym squatting and what their squat PB is.

Rowdy 210kg

Zoran 225kg

Martin 227.5kg

Emad 232.5kg

Spiros 235kg

Daniel 240kg

Max 250kg

Jack 300kg

The strange thing is, with long arms like his he is supposed to have a huge deadlift and shit bench, like Fuzzy

The prick still benches 150kg

By the looks in his deadlift vid , Martin has a very strong upper back as well. He finishes the deadlift movement with some good power in the top range. That strong upper back is likely one good reason his bench is solid despite long arms.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
