  1. Trial and error, you'll soon know if you can keep it up or not. Sport definitely affects powerlifting progress.
  2. You'll never be 100% a few hours after exercise, but if it's not too stringent you can get damn close. As for heavy lifting, that varies depending on the kind of program you're doing, how conditioned you are and how hard you're going in the workout. Olympic athletes train the same muscle group 5-6 times a week. Beginner powerlifters can get told to put a day of rest between each workout, or even two. Properly damaged muscles do take a few days to fully repair though - this doesn't mean you can't use them again or that you shouldn't lift until you're 100% again. But you do need to be wary that they are getting enough recovery or you could enter overtraining mode and, whilst not a fatal thing, it can certainly hinder your process when your muscles don't have the adequate rest to rebuild, which is why we damage them in the gym in the first place. So I would gauge it and experiment with your own body and muscle groups. DOMS isn't always a good way to judge if your muscles are ready to tackle a workload again. As an example, I was training only twice a week until recently and had consistent doms all the time - I thought I'll wait until I don't have doms this frequently before I go adding a third session in. But the doms didn't disappear, so I said fk it I'll just train with sore legs - I lifted more in that session than I did in my regular session, and since doing 3 a week I no longer have doms as bad. Go figure. I may have been resting too much and was out of condition. There's probably an exact science behind all that, but regardless, I say experiment yourself with recovery, because everyone is different. But yes, muscles need days to properly heal 100% from heavy lifting and recovery from sport or non-resistance training should be a lot quicker for muscles as it doesn't appear to damage muscle as much as it does joints (keep an eye on joints for repetitive strain injuries).
  3. Never thought about carrying a standard ecu...how would it cope with the 1100cc injectors though? Surely it would run too rich?
  4. People be treating E85 like some kind of potential pedophile
  5. Any ecu capable of controlling injector flow rate, which is any programmable ecu really, can tune for E85. An E85 tune is only more fuel delivery and advanced timing taking advantage of the high octane.
  6. Interesting that the boost ramps up slightly slower with E85 despite making more power at that stage anyway. 40rwkw gain in the mid and top out of 1psi, that's a nice chunk of power.
  7. She's put cardboard over her half of the television. We rented Man Without a Face. I didn't even know he had a problem.
  8. Recovery from what? Heavy breathing? Light exercise? Sport? Damaging muscle fibers after heavy lifting?
  9. This is good for 1st person shooters where you already dart eyes everywhere, but annoying for everything else.
  10. Good tv hey! You got a bargain. Think mine was a few hundred more a few months before the end of last year.
  11. Yeh 850B I think Go the 70, the extra 10 inches is a big difference. Depends on room size to an extent, but my lounge isn't that huge. Feel free to pop by and see / measure how far away I sit. With the 70" you can sit pretty far back, so more people can watch it at same time without a crappy viewing angle = great for boys nights in. Have sat 2 metres away from it playing COD and it's still very clear looking.
  12. This post confuses me
  13. Buy $70 of wolfblass wine first = $370 tv and wait 20 weeks for it fkn lol I'll stick with my 70" Sony FHD, which I still think is the best value:quality TV out at the moment. A bit over $2k and clear as day
  14. 80% Your chance of being audited since making that post
  15. Actually no I'd put D2Rs on it
  16. Fark that would be a fun carAnd Narva headlights on the front
  17. Grab the $10k 32 GTR in the for sale section, looks like a decent track basher
  18. Brand new or installed and taken out?
  19. Prolly not far off the mark pending condition. I almost shelled out for one that was full of HKS goodies and a z tune body kit, that was about 55k and went for just shy of it. Average 34Rs go for 35-40 the good ones seem to sell around 50-60 depending what gear they have. If you got that one for 50-55 it would be a good buy assuming everything is mechanically and structurally sound. Still think 34s are overpriced as shit though, that or 33s are underpriced, but likely the former.
  20. Yeah but when it's already making that kind of power in the midrange, just means you can change gears early as fk lol
  21. So imagine that with E85 and you'll literally have power on tap everywhere in any gear at any speed
