Food - What Is Good, What Is Ok, And What Is Really Bad For Us


Recommended Posts

I'm getting a DEXA scan next Tuesday, should be tops. Did you get one done Birds?

Not yet, but I'm keen to. Might book in this week. It'll be purely for interest's sake; I can't see my BF changing much anytime soon to make follow up scans worthwhile. Be good to take a pic and say this is me a x%.

Edit: have increased food intake and lifts recently, so might be worth it afterall.

Car runs great, I'm just over it. It's pushing me dangerously close to depression lol

Get a motorbike - depression alleviated.

Not yet, but I'm keen to. Might book in this week. It'll be purely for interest's sake; I can't see my BF changing much anytime soon to make follow up scans worthwhile. Be good to take a pic at 37 degrees angle from the passenger side window of an R33 gtst with 10% window tint at exactly 4:37pm on a day which is 29 degrees with 59% humidity and say this is me a x%.

Fixed?

Get a motorbike - depression alleviated.

That's the plan (though a dirt bike, at least while I'm restricted on my Ls) however I can do that until I f**k this car off. I'm either going to strip it for parts and get roughly $11k give or take for everything, or sell the shell as it is now for $10k neg, registered, and legally engineered.

Eat a jar of Natural Peanut butter and do squats.

Depression and car care factor cured!

I essentially am blaming part of my bad mood and HORRIFIC FEELING in my gut on organic peanut butter lol...ate like 6 rye biscuits with peanut butter last night. The last time I did that I also felt this way (last Friday). Correlation may not equal cause, but f**k it that'll do for now.

What's the difference between natural and organic?! o.O The stuff I get is the Woolworths Macro wholefoods shit, since that's the only peanut butter I've found that lists "100% peanuts" in the ingredients.

...>.> I just posted that URL... And was asking time not website. No matter! Compare notes next week!

You totally posted dexascan.com.au instead of bodyscan.com.au

Unforgivable

Natural peanut butter is in the "health food" section of woolies - where the protein bars and powders are.

the stuff you have is from the same section where the regular peanut butter is but in it's own "MACRO" branded section.

Try the Natural one.

Please explain your reasoning, other than cost. The sanitarium shit still has added salt and/or sugar. The macro stuff does not, and is only peanuts.

I cannot fathom why you suggest something with additives over something without.

Look at the label and see which one has less carbs and salt?

Still shouldn't be applicable, even if the macro one has more calories/carbs/whatever....it can't have more salt considering it has NONE added.

The only way the macro one could have more calories/carbs/whatever is if the Sanitarium one is being watered down....so my question remains, why the hell is it better than something that's purer?

TOLGA YOU BEST BE TROLLING ME BRO

I think TTT statement covers a wider area.

Organic foods aren't always natural.

orangic is just the way it's grown, sugars etc. can be added and it still be an organic product.

The natural ones have no additives

and doesn't organic shit cost way more?

OK now that I go to Sanitarium's website and look at their "natural" peanut butter, I see that it's also 100% peanuts with no added salt or sugar....I was confused given that they have a different product that is CLEARLY LABELLED "No added sugar or salt", leading me to believe that since what he linked wasn't clearly labelled as such also, it must have them added.

Now the only argument would be price, which I dare say Sanitarium is probably cheaper.

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
