I hope you're at least taking progress pics for yourself. One thing I regret is not taking before pics of how ridiculously skinny I was.

Yeah I am - ironically the biggest motivator for me to start doing something was realising how much of a fat f**k I'd become from looking at photos and wondering why I always looked fat haha.

a very rough calculation of my daily protein intake is

15g from tuna

81g from chicken breast

30-80 depending on what I eat for dinner

24g from whey powder

plus a small amount from my morning oats with a splash of milk. Assuming I'm eating a decent amount of meat for dinner, that brings me to around 200g, which is my 1g /lb of lean body mass.

I was eating cottage cheese / greek yogurt for dessert for a while, but I've been trying to keep my calories down.

On an unrelated note, managed to get bench, OHP, deadlift and squats in today, was quite pleased!

Throw in a scoop or a half scoop of protein to your oats in the mourning to help if needed.

I think the ham you buy from the deli in Woollies etc is probably semi processed, not that I can see it as a bad thing as long as nothing is added to it.

Only concerns I have with processed meat are unnecessary additives (salt, sugar, etc), and not really knowing what part of the animal (or God forbid, what animal at all) you're eating. lol.

Ham is a processed meat. Leg ham is less processed than say, the square blocks that are formed from scraps. but it is still processed. It has things added to it, thats what makes ham and bacon taste so different to a pork chop. so, not unnecessary addictives or it wouldnt be what it is, but the ones you don't like.

I'd like to think bacon is only smoked to hell, but that's probably not the case :(

Glad I'm not the only one; I could seriously live on cheese, dips and vegetable sticks.

Sometimes I think I might be addicted to cheese. I have looked into it and I know that milk contains the protein casein, which provokes similar effects to opiates when it's turned into cheese. When the casein molecules are digested, they break apart to release tiny opiate molecules, called casomorphins. The process of cheese-making removes water, lactose and whey proteins so that casein is more concentrated.

So maybe you can develop a cheese addiction?

    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
