Ditch the isolation shoulder exercises and start doing incline dumbell or barbell presses - it's like bench press, but with more of a focus on the shoulders. And as it's a compound exercise, it will in turn help your flat bench press.

You can also change the way you grip during bench press. Wider grip = more shoulders, closer grip = chest and triceps. Bar closer to your neck = more shoulders, bar further down the chest = chest and triceps.

Toning = diet and cardio. The guys in this section can give you some good advice http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/forum/241-health-%26-wellbeing/

Haha if you're ever over the east side I'll be happy to do a gym sesh with you and see what your work out is like, or you can give mine a shot if you wanna try something different (guarantee you'll be sore the next day haha).

Rather than doing isolation stuff, you could also try 5-6 sets of the compound lifts (bench, incline, military). I'm only just warmed up after 3 sets.

    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.  
    • I'm shocked, you've owned a Skyline since 2006 and never joined SAU before now! 😮   Welcome, it's much quieter these days than it was in 2006, but lots of very knowledgeable ones lurk around here. I actually think in outage we've forgotten more about Skylines than anyone knows about them today... 😛
    • So it could give us some info. Such as we find out what number they started at, and we know how many of those blocks came before it.
