Great read Leesh, good to see you found it within you to keep going. Your progress pic shows the results of your determination.. good stuff!

In regards to the statement about creatine...

It's apparent effects are very closely tied in to how much muscle mass you're currently carrying. Keeping in mind that creatine doesn't affect subcutaneous water. So, the more muscle you already have, the more pronounced the effect of supplemented creatine will be. Water gain (muscle cell saturation) isn't always an effect of creatine use.. I'm a non-responder in that regard. However the relative strength increases seen with it are awesome. It's quite an 'individual' supplement.. It will definitely help you to reach your goals if you're comfortable using it.

And it won't take away the 6 pack either :)

Fantastic work, keep it up!

Didn't lock out the 110 deadlift; hopefully next week. I know I can do it. I'm happy anyway as I weigh 55kg at the moment, so double bodyweight dl come at me!

47.5 bench and 110 deadlift are equal PBs following an infraspinatus tear a couple of months ago that rendered Leesh unable to sleep let alone move her arm in certain positions without excruciating pain. This forced Leesh to rehabilitate the mobility in her shoulder and start from scratch again, with basically all exercise whilst the tissue healed. Her technique is consequently much better now, particularly on bench press, and most importantly, pain free.

Congratulations on getting back there and on your way to smashing these old PBs with some new ones. Exciting times ahead.

Squats are improving! Now to solve world hunger..

Yes but at the expense of technique... I have this issue with my right knee bending in as I'm coming up from the squat, was particularly bad tonight.. The 60's were shocking

    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
