I know the feeling, used to happen to me.

I got two jobs, work 7 days a week,go to gym 3 times a week and I study at home. Planning and time management is the key.

Drink plenty of water, seems to help me with the stress. And always keep reminding yourself that it will all be worth it at the end.

Seriously though - do more. I used to rarely sleep more than 5hrs a night. I quit recently and am now in the process of starting up my restaurant (a Squires Loft in Nunawading ) - and even though I'm

I love to sleep. Actually doctors advised that every person should sleep 7 to 8 hours daily at night. And child should sleep 11 to 12 hours daily at night. That was the most important to stay healthy and also good to keep your body fit. And if you want to gain weight then you should also sleep well and also eat well.

I'm a terrible sleeper. Should go to the doctor but it seems I'm happy enough to take medical advice from anonymous users on a car forum. Downloaded the app and will see how I go.

We seldom offer bad advice.

Now sign over your car collection to me; this will save you hours of headaches and servicing costs.

Birds I will gift you my Mazda6. I'm sure that's what you meant. New tyres, brakes and wheelbearings - cracking car. Sleep app worked well but at this stage is proving to be more of interest than help. It shows 5 points of deep sleep and 1 point of awake over 8 hours. Deepest sleep at 4.00 and a wake up time of 5.12. Alarm was spooky as it goes off just as you are waking anyhow....Seems like a coincidence until you remember how it works.

The acceleromiter dooby in the iPhone is very sensitive and I was impressed how well it worked on its test.

Can't get a screen dump or an image file off the phone so can't share. Will take technical assistance.

Above performance assisted by an over the counter sleeping pill.

Edit, found a way to get the image. Not sure about file format. See how we go.

what is the go with these sleep apps?

what are they meant to do? help you achieve? offer what adivce? are they bs like testosterone pills? how are they meant to work?

They just learn your usual sleeping pattern, then time the alarm appropriately to wake you outside of REM sleep.

That and you can use them to see your own sleeping pattern for insight.

they work via the accelerometer in the phone. so it need to be able to feel you tossing and turning. they are useful because it will wake you at 6.47am when you are at a lighter stage of sleep vs 7am when you may be going back into a deeper sleep. basically its less of a shock to the system and you dont feel as groggy when you wake

For the record Leesh, you don't need to have it right next to your head. There should be a "test" mode on the thing where you can trial different spots on your mattress. Just chuck it into test mode, put it on the other side of your bed from where you have your head, and move around a bit. It should make sounds to indicate it's picking up your movement.

Not a matter of worthy dear. This is sometimes due to burden of work that you have done for last few days or weeks. Or may be due to the style of sleeping that you have adopted. Sometimes you feel comfortable in new one but not your body organs. So, try to relax and calm down.

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.

      Skyline v36 350GT sedan hunting on idle

      By Robot · Posted

      Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣

      After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
