I'm suprised this hasn't been established already?

who does swimming around here?

how far do you swim?

how long do you swim for?

do you swim in a pool or the ocean?

Does anyone do any open water races??

I swim 3-5 times a week, anywhere from 2-4km in the Ocean.

Damn I haven't swum properly for years...tested my bi-lateral breathing the other day and I still have it :D

Used to love the swim carnivals as a kid/teenager and swimming in squad. Now find the idea of swimming in a warm public pool a bit :/

Tommy Hafey swims in the bay 365 days a year. No shit he told me. Champion.

The Harold Holt pool has an awesome 50m outdoor pool which in the winter is awesome and spooky, love going late at night when the condensation is rising and you get out and it's freezing cold.

Usually just swim 1km breaststroke but not so much of that in my routine at the moment.

I hate the ocean, love to swim in pools though.

I just dislike the salt, sand and have an irrational fear of jellyfish, sharks and stingrays. Hell, I don't even like crabs.

I am opposite I love the ocean, ok with outdoor salt pools... Hate indoor pools...

i reckon it depends on what temp the pool is at, prefer outdoor pools with temp less than 18 degrees.

bay at the moment is around 19 degrees.

Optimal temp is 15 degrees... but i swim all year round! winter and everything in between!

get's to 6 degrees.

Posted earlier about stroke correction. The highlight of the week is now my weekly coaching session. Having a coach through the winter has kept my motivation up, the drills and technique improvement she has given me has been money well spent and enjoyed.

    • It will give gains, but you wont hit 600 It will give gains but it wont get you to 600 imo. You will also sacrifice low down and you will be adding extra volume if you port match it, more so if you port the plenum runners depending and how its done I think the only time youre going to see about 100hp gains is if the car is making well over 1k kw I do have a spare set that I was going to test with, but i dont actually think there is anything worth getting going larger. I did a fair few S14/S15 and the standard TB is fairly small, I went to 60 and in some cases 64mm which is significant over the stock unit. You can also get some weird ratio changes. I think 20kw will be a stretch on a roller dyno. If I had it apart I might mill the shafts a little and not expect much, I think the stock size is still pretty good for a street/track car even with larger capacity. I might change diameter it if its a drag only car

    • As long as the bucket stays against the cam then it will measure up fine, the valve will close compared to a running engine but the bucket will stay against the cam lobe 
    • I feel like i would be like most people who get these, excited for the first 3-6 months and then just totally forget about it. The end products do look sick tho. Ive got a 1/12 scale r32 model, dunno where im gonna actually display it once its all done!
