Couple of action shots from today ha max cardio conditioning DVD just a pure ragging no water breaks scheduled into it after the warm up mental. Excuse the yellow had to edit my pics :)

Hey folks good responses :) Ive got P90X as well but got that 2nd so doin this first. From what i have seen of P90X and heard from people it is less intensity as stated but still gets good results just in 90 days instead. I know one lass that went from Insanity and tried my P90X but she couldnt get into it as it was less intensity. It is still a good workout though that you can do in your living room for an hour a day i think it is 6 days a week maybe. Alot of people dont have the time and fitness is a life choice not just an hour a day so the people that do do it make the time :) Also i have heard about one called `Rush fit` that is made by one of the MMA fighter that is meant to be somehwhere in the middle maybe and the best out of the 3 so i heard. I havent looked into it yet and it hasnt appeared in the shops out here yet but Mr Afghan is looking into his sources ;) I was amazed though at looking at some of the you tube vids for Insanity and seeing size 20ish women saying they have been doing it and i was thinking they would die but having stuck to it they have dropped to say a size 16 so if they can do it well its easy for anyone else. Ill look into gas mask workouts and things got a few USMC up here and even Insanity is too much for them although it is surprising how not fit they actually are they just smash the weights all the time.

Coming from my expert professional opinon if you want to lose weight, tone up or just get in alot better shape then read on. I have been doing a workout for the past 6 weeks now (excluding my 2 weeks break back in the UK) and i have to say it is the best training i have ever done. For those that have met me i am on about 9% bodyfat and i have dropped 6kg off doing this and i have nothing to lose. It is either this or what we like to call the OSPREY diet (body armour). INSANITY is what it is called and if you have ever heard of it you may be able to agree with how insane it looks and it is just that. I have had a few people that have been doing it as well out here and all of them have stopped it claiming that they `want to get massive` or `will do it closer to the end of the 6 month tour`. Fact is i think it is just too much for some. Scour youtube and you will find loads of sucess stories that from doing the sessions i would say actually are not publicity stunts. the 2 people i know that have kept up with it, 1 having completed it are both female so it just goes to show. These workouts are breaking the best of people with them loosing the motivation because they know exactly how hard the next session is going to be. If you like a challenge then give it a go. I have 3 weeks of it left and i have never had so much agaility in the whole of my career and may just be at my best fitness in 14 years even though im now 32. Hopefully this video works as a little taster. [video=youtube_share;ZLK28BHJDd8]

Yeah was a little hot last night about 25c i think. At least i managed to keep the mosi`s out of my bed space

Meister Rs simply the best IMO. Are not a hard ride like Teins and fully adjustable. Couple of pics of my slickie on them with 18s. I was adjusting the height as i went to find the best height. Dont know how much they are dropped now its just enough so it is right.

There is still the element of tidying up the engine bay though rather than gaining an extra 5hp. I never used mine and never will. The LWB may be a GT but the shorties are a sports car :D

I had one made up for 20 quid. Dont think i have the design on this laptop but do a serch and you will find my thread

most you need to remove is the rad and piping and such to get down to the air con condenser. The rest is pretty easy from there battery out too to get to the pipes but pretty straight forward all in :)

They are looking good Steve :) was there anything else that took your fancy on the silver shorty :D

Ive ditched mine on all my zeds. Loads of weight saved, tidier engine bay and it means i can relocate my fuse box to where the pump was. As for price well if someone is buying a zed because it has air con maybe they are looking for the wrong car and woud be better suited to a family saloon. Remove the belt and see if you notice a different in engine performance. Personally i liketo remove as much as possible as it is less to go wrong and it makes the engine bay less cluttered.

I would but I've got a flight to catch :D

depends where you wanna put it. I did a thread on mine last week

These normally get cut off at the front and then sledged out backwards or the otherway round. However sometimes heat and alot of effort is required. Failing that hydraulic power is the only way to go. I think Jap Slapper ended up getting the knuckles off as he had the same drama so i would PM him :)

I say you get hold of someone with skills that they have aquired over a long career and a high intellect to settle this out of court. No body is untouchable they are just complacent. :)

ah edit i did read 260

wheres these cheap 280s at ill have one too :D

plus your gonna need to get a flywheel if you dont have one

You may want a clutch booster then as some say it of too hard to press the tt clutch without it. I had an exedy twin plate on my na and found it ok. Also if you use a na box you need to modify the bell housing and shim the starter motor out. I would reckon its easier to get a na clutch though

They are off :D i dont hang about

want me to look on it tomorrow Baz?

delete the EGR and you casn get the top 2 bolts from the top simple and one of my top recommendations to delete :) Also on re reading it i know you have to drop the subframe slightly to get the engine out with the box staying in but dont think you need to if you are pulling it all out in one

take the prop off the diff and then it will slide out the G/box. No mount at the rear of engine. Subframe needs to be dropped slightly which is 2 bolts either side iirc jujst loosing them to end of threads should be enough and jack up the car. Drain the G/box of oil too otherwise plug up the prop hole or you will end up with oil everywhere

I might see you on A1/M1 as im heading down early on the bike. The tab washers on the 4 nuts onto the manifold stop them coming loose as there is no washers on them and they are just plain nuts.

Not a fan of the turbo tab washers are you. Are you heading down the Pod tomorrow?

I also suggest you curb the aggressive tone it is not wanted here.
