:yes:

well nismo?

so I went down to the PTC yesterday... cool little gym and friendly bunch of people, thanks Markos!

I took it relatively easy as I've never been to a PL comp before and didn't want to embarrass myself... so definitely some more in my squat, and heap more left in the deadlift... totally underestimated how nice the proper DL bar is to use and could've easily gone 200+... maybe next time;)

Squat > 160kg

Bench > 110kg (failed @ 115kg)

Deadlift > 190kg (should've opened with this)

not a bad effort considering I don't train for power lifting... but some super strong guys down there, makes for a humbling experience!

Not sure how to embed video from FB here? can't link due to privacy settings on my FB page

Nick did really well, his only issue was weight selection. His last deadlift of 190kg should have been his opener, I think Nick could have pulled 210kg+

This was a novice comp with mostly first timers, none of the 9 lifters I have going to Worlds lifted, theyre really strong

Nick also displayed excellent technique on all the lifts

As far as equipment goes, nothing better than what we have exists, we have the highest standard available anywhere in the world

The bar they guys benched and squatted with costs $2000, the calibrated plates are $14kg

This is important as we send lifters to Worlds.......no surprises when we get there

Tom, the best gym in the ACT is Elite Physique

They hold numerous comps there. Next one is the GPC National Push/Pull, a bench and dead only comp

This event will be held on the same day in VIC, NSW, ACT, WA, QLD, NT, November 18.

South Australians are coming to Vic to compete this year

Nick missed out on the competitors meeting, I explained we judge hard

Even though its a novice comp, we judge it like a Worlds, no second chances or whoopsies

One guy had his 175kg bench press red lighted because he put the bar back before the rack call

Massive difference between gym lifts and comp lifts

Nick now has official comp lifts to judge his progress by

If any of you guys feel like helping out some of the NSW peeps that would be great.

They have just started a thread for all of them to get healthy.

Seems to be a lack of good info other then exercise.

Drop in and give some tips if you have some free time

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
