.

Some should be excluded though, yourself, Nick and Simon. No one on here will beat Ghosty at this challenge, or most challenges

No one is excluded.., "most challenges" hey.. I'm sure I can think a few challenges that wouldn't be so one sided.... Apparently

Only problem is im a sook and my hands get rooted from work as a cabinet maker/installer so i use wraps to ease the pain and damage. Otherwise id do it, as its deads day for me today.

if I could edit the original post I'd add those excuses next to the coil pack issues.

says the guy who also says "not competing yet till I get a little stronger"

lol

It was more to do with the first doable novice comp being around April/May - incidentally enough time to gain some strength. I'll compete anyway, I just hope to be stronger by then.

Sounds like fun! I don't really care about the winning part. Any challenge can be applied against yourself.

Hard choice on the percentage vs standard weight because.... Well I have put on weight since I started gym and most of it is fat weight. Anyway!

I'm cool without gloves but is chalky chalk ok?

chalk is always welcome

Might have to look into this more.

I currently weigh in at 84kg ,

Was zapped today from heat, no excuse though i thought i preped before gym well. I believe there is plenty of room for improvement on that effort. I will see if i can get a video tomorrow when little less busy.

So is this a 1.5x bodyweight or 100kg? was it decided?

My deads today included a set of 145kg for 12 reps. @ 96.5kg. My first deads in a very very long time....

I think I'd like to do 20 or so reps of 145kg before the end of Jan, hopefully I can vid the success in the next week or so.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
