There's this one guy at my gym that literally grunts/yells during every rep, even on smaller lifts. He also likes to yell at the mirror before a set to psych himself up and congratulates himself loudly at the end of sets.

There was also a similar guy at my old gym that used to announce loudly to the gym what weight he was about to do "90kg! Come on! 90kg!"

I also had this one guy come over and tell me that his squat was like mine 3 months ago, but keep at it and I'll be able to squat as much as him. He then proceeded to load up the bar and did literally the shallowest squats I've ever seen, to call them 1/8 squats would be generous.

Finally I hate people who deadlift pathetic weight but slam it down as if to show off how heavy it is. Yes 100kg will make a lot of noise, no its not an impressive deadlift.

These four guys

Do a few reps of 150 pounds on lat pulldown

Then go and do some bro curls

One curls while the other 3 spot him / point at and feel each others' biceps

They encompass everything wrong with commercial gyms

Ok I've finally found something.



I have to work the close at my gym, and when it's 9.45pm (we close at 10), there's always this middle aged couple that come in to start training.

I would be alright with it if they were serious enough to power through a quick session, but instead they just work through it at their leisure.


I have to kick them out every single night... get a hint?

    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
