@JEPPE - sorry wasn't clear. I meant that the two main reasons I think that girls don't hit the weights is: because they think they will get massive muscles, and because weights is where most guys are, and guys will most likely ogle girls in spandex, and (not all) girls like being ogled at.

Ah yeah cool get 'cha.

f**king women. Seriously just wear trakky dacks and a loose top, then there's nothing for the guys to look at! And quit layering on copious amounts of makeup ffs and worrying about your appearence!

Why am I preaching to women here? Deeeeerrrrrrp.

Women logic is not logic... impossible battle.

yeah these three creepy indians that just stop what they're doing and basically stare at any girl in the free weights area

shit even makes me uncomfortable

I would loooooove for them to do that while I have my boxing gear on -_-

Yeah, I think any girl would be stupid not to know that guys are going to take a peek. Girls do it to guys all the time. And if they're not ok with it then good luck to them.

Another way to fix is 24hr gym and head in super late or early. Solved!

That's just how you pick up chicks.

everyone knows that.

you stare at them like you're trying to burn a hole in them.

if that doesn't work, try it with your hands in your pockets.

If all else fails, wait in the car park in your car till the chick leaves and then drive past and beep your horn.

Women love that shit.

Can't go wrong.

that's unlucky that you'd have to time your workouts around getting peeked at by guys hahahaha

Some of the girls at my gym seem not to do any exercise, but constantly walk around lapping up the stares and whispers. Way to pay a subscription for your ego feeds lol.

Then there are the identical twin Asian guys who introduce themselves to every new girl in the gym and will step over your bloody corpse to say hi to girls before you, spending more time talking than pushing and pulling. Not surprisingly, they don't see much success with the ladies or the weights.

Good point re. girls gym 'outfits'... my Mrs wears the tight singlets and yoga pants and it's pretty funny when I catch a guy looking... they get all embarrassed and look away like I'm going to get upset or something... I'm like dude, we're married, look all you want lol... I'm a bit of a perv too hehe

...although I'm not perving, I'm checking their form...

even funnier when guys approach her for a chat or to give her 'tips'... how come nobody ever talks to me in the gym? (apparently it's because I look pissed off the whole time)

Lovin some SLDL in those yoga pants... pro-tip: use the mirrors;)

This!

I admit if I'm doing mainly free weights or stuff in the ''guy area'' I will go to the gym earlier or later rather than my normal 5.30pm timeslot, but mainly because I'm a little bit intimidated more than anything!

using mirrors feels like watching TV

shit just isnt the same

agreed, though sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, like when they're kind of facing you hahaha

having said that, this is stupid to say but: sometimes I wish the girls wouldn't be there so i can maintain 100% concentration

You know how I know you're gay?

Leesh - do you have an after pic of that before pic in your avatar?

if your distracted by girls while in the middle of a set the weight isn't heavy enough... perving is between sets entertainment... don't look too long though, that's not the sort of 'pump' you want

lol @ mirrors being like TV... you have a valid point

I've been seeing a bit of this now that I'm more regular. Chicks will sit on a machine for 10 minutes doing the lightest reps and not even breaking a sweat or grunt. Then they get up in their sexy tight spandex and strut around with their towel on their shoulder for 5 minutes and repeat. I giggle.

even funnier when guys approach her for a chat or to give her 'tips'... how come nobody ever talks to me in the gym? (apparently it's because I look pissed off the whole time)

Haha, maybe that's why guys haven't approached me yet. The most commonly asked question I get in life is 'Charlie, why are you so angry?' when it's just my normal face! Probably the reason why I never get guys talking to me in general haha, works for me!

I'm a bit intimidated too, more so I like going to the gym but only when I have a buddy unless I'm doing a very routine workout that I know well. If I'm using any machines I want someone there to help me on my form so that I don't look like a complete freak doing it wrong. Also having a guy mate there probably helps with deterring the stares and 'helpful tips'

sigh, when will this endless need for clarification end? I meant 100% concentration in my rest between sets. minimise rest, save more time. AND I'm not saying I use my entire rest time to look. not even close.

having said that, i saw a girl doing tricep pulldowns with the v-bar attachment on the cables with flared elbows, thought to myself "oh that's bad form, should say something" but then i realised that it would probably be taken the wrong way. not to mention I'm no pro myself, but I do know that the elbows are to stay by the side.

Yer I have the same problem, angry face while lifting FTL... Those three Indian guys would look classic just staring, snap a pic next time (dw ur male they won't even notice u doing it :P)

She may take it the wrong way... but if you said the above in a completely non seedy way then I think it's way way better than just leaving it. I know guys don't tell other guys because they're most likely get uppity about being critiqued then bust a cap in your arse... or something. BUT a girl will most likely either listen, or at least think about it and check it later, maybe do some research.

I get heaps of tips from many different sources and sometimes they contradict but if I didn't have the tips then I would never go searching to see what was really the right way to go.

So I'm all for speaking up :)

This need for clarification will continue for as long as you use terms like this^

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
