gym to get fit... it's not a dick measuring contest. fk weights

Weights will get you fit too... In tandem probably best bet imo. Unless you just want mad endurance or something :S

I dont see why the government needs to throw cash to try and keep a failing company afloat. The industry has had many years warning to shape-up and change and they have done too litle too late. Territory was successful, but need some serious movers and shakers by that point. They played it 'safe' and now theyre bust. I do feel for the employees though, government money should go towards them and not ford (if there was an option and government were gonna splash the cash anyway)

My reasoning is 2 fold...

1) I give no farks for weights or impressing people with what I can lift

2) I have fkd knees and left elbow, so i'm pretty restricted on what i can lift.

I might do some core stuff eventually, but really I just want to get fit

Well said.

At least the employees have a decent amount of time to secure new employment in this instance.

ford shutting down production in aus.. if government gave them as much as they did holden that may not happen..

If they made decent (smaller) cars for a reasonable price that people liked the look of, they wouldn't be going under.

Toyota can't make enough FT86's... Styling must be the key. I doubt other manufacturers will learn from Ford's mistakes though.

Ghost camera wont arrive before sandown... delays due to tornado. Forcast is slightly improving for weekend... itching for some track action. Passenger bucket seat is almost ready :)

..work...going...too...slow...

Had a photoshoot.

Strength training makes you fit and shreds fat.

Ford Australia going under has more to do with local product struggling to compete against conglomerate manufacturers in other countries employing people to work for SFA and...in the grand scheme of things...the mentality behind you buying your shit from "eBay anywhere but Australia" because it's the cheapest you can get it.

In saying that I'll be having macca's for lunch

I had a Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich, with Cheese, and ham, and tomato relish....

Ok, so it was pretty much a parma sandwich. I'm alright with this.

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
