Vans Authentics...catch of the day always have them for $50 delivered.

Unrelated, they are one of the most surprisingly comfortable shoes to wear casually, despite an appearance like it would have zero support etc.

I've already got a pair coming lol. Yeah well they're really just to cover my feet, if I could I'd squat and DL in bare feet. Feels really f**king wrong in trainers now. Got a few other guys squatting in their socks too now.

Dan - boong = abo.

Boong car = a car that looks like it's owned by abos.

Leesh - what's wrong with your abs?

I have no idea it's like they are bruised? Can't laugh/sneeze and doing number 2's is nearly impossible proli need to go to doctor

I dunno man - the only time I'm putting a heavy barbell on my back or picking one up off the floor is at the gym...

I play bball and the explosive strength from squats comes in handy for rebounds etc. Not that you can't build it otherwise and transfer; I just find the movement transfers easier if I'm training with runners that I wear when playing - I guess in the same way that you find it difficult to squat in runners, now that you've trained the mobility of the exercise into not using them.

got told off for squatting in socks today - put my shoes back on and did 4 reps before chucking the bar back in the hooks - f**k that. Hopefully my Chuck Taylor's turn up soon.

Told off by who and why?

yeah well I suppose in the context of you playing a sport it makes sense Birds.

alr33x: gym staff member noticed it. Surprising to only get told off now given that I've been doing it for quite a while, starting to get over this particular gym though - they're making it pretty obvious that they don't want serious lifters there apart from bodybuilding pretty boys.

Yeah fair enough most gyms say about wearing shoes but never seen anyone gettin picked up on it even some of the trainers take their shoes off

We get told off for having shoes off, using chalk and making noise at one of the gyms I go to

I've been told off for wearing socks a couple of times when I was going to Anytime Fitness, but given I'm friends with that location's owner, it's only because they HAVE to tell me off haha. I think it's for their insurance, gotta have closed toe shoes.

    • Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.
    • It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
    • OK...so dumb question to check....do the hi beams actually come on when the push the stalk to engage them (keeping in mind your headlight switch must be at ON as well)
    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable
