Back to Beast mode

It's been a good year since I posted in the old thread and it's a reflection of my lack of dedication to training. So new thread for a new beginning.

The aim is to achieve a couple of key things this year.

1) maintain a regular commitment to exercise. At least 3 times a week. So I have a healthy habit in place for life and reverses the priority from work to my own health. Been a dead loss the last year.

2) drop body fat a tad, so i can at least see all my abbs and get back to at least 34 inch waist again again..good for my health and wardrobe.

3) get back to some strength benchmarks for a variety of lifts. Functional strength has always been important to me and I enjoy reaching goals related.

I am prioritising getting to the gym and strength initially , while having a little more fat helps. Then about March I will start pegging the diet back more . Not that its out of control at the moment.

with a couple of months of workouts under the belt this week the highlight for me was getting a good set of seated dumbell shoulder press out. 45kg dumbbells for 9 rep sets . In two weeks I hope to be getting the 50's going.

The shoulder health is great so far too. I have been adding partials (lower range) of hammer strength shoulder press and incline bench along with Cuban press ,YTWL band work and face pulls in weeks prior to starting on full range work with the dumbells. Will integrate some bench press later on.

I have worked up to now drop setting from 5 reps on 200kg for both the hammer strength shoulder press and incline bench. I think it's the maximum plates either will take. Really helps with getting the shoulder press up and out of the blocks.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
