Was there something on? As come to think of it I stopped off at the Shell in Hillington round 8 this morning and there were three Supras and a Type R in convoy ready to leave, all looked like showcars...

Grey Z at the roundabout up at B&Q just going into Paisley round 10 to 6...

Nice wheels...

If its a quick sprint then filling up at Pilgrims Way I will stop at a Shell just outside Ghent and then again at Malmedy (fuel only, its too busy to be a nice lunch stop now), that gets you there...

You can cruise and do it on a tank (never tried this but the calcs say its doable)...

Fuel is cheap over there the now so roughly there and back on 4 tanks and however much you burn on track...

Have fun...

I'm in Wales that weekend... I have this Saturday free and then karting every weekend till the 26/27th Sep... So, no, can make it...

Missed a comma, lol...

At Knockhil, met Alex feck me, GT3RS v 350Z... No contest, that is one fast Z... The GTR was even faster...

Ok, ahv got all the wee things done ah wanted today so ahm goin up tonight, be there for half 6 - 7... Money says no track though... Wish they did a pay per lap thing so you could go do like two or three just to get out...

That must be silly loud, I have the HKS dual with sports cats and I'm amazed ahv no been put off the road yet...

Hi guys, any meets in Glasgow area upcoming, would be nice to bump into someone when I actually have the Z with me, I mean, to all intents and purposes apart from Alex, you guys don't even know if I really have a Z...

Plus I want a look at the cage in Neils Nismo again...

Were a week back, went through Dunquirke and never seen an immigrant let alone any trouble... Security at the port was tight though...

I carry the yellow vest and breath kit (2 off)... I didn't have beam deflectors... Fuses, tyre gunk and spare co2, couple of spanners n the like, oh and Duck Tape, that's a must, just in case...

Have fun...

No, its a 3 and a half ton 4 wheel drive people carrier, lol...

Just been round a wet Nurburgring in JixaDeli in 16 minutes... What a riot...

Dry, wet, dry... Been a stunning day then a couple of minutes into touristenfharten it poured for 5 minutes but within 10 minutes there was a dry line and another 20 dry...

Were taking the Deli round tomorrow...

Ha, seen one on German plates, possibly it, at the parking bit at plansgarten II and just now there a black and a red 350 just went by... Session's just been red flagged...

Off on the annual pilgrimage, not in the Z though, have to take the Deli, going with the family so its a hire car for me..

Anyone over this week coming...

In Smalltown on Sunday night at 9 goin through the lights, no, I wasnt in the Z, ah was in the Deli flashin the lights and wavin...

Must make a meet with the Z so you can see ah actually have one...

We were in the big blue Jixa Racing van on way home from a weekends racing at Rowrah, passed a matt black 350 roadster coming the other way, just east of Carslile, total stealth, never seen it till the last minute...

For sure...

We head east from the tunnel to Spa, stay over in Robertsville, then play down to Bastogne for lunch then on through Luxembourg to Wintrich on the Mosel where we stay as well (check out the mini Stelvio at Piesport), next its playing in the hills of the Mosel stopping at Cochem for lunch then its off to the track. We hit Zolder on the way back up...

A bit late but for accommodation, Burgstrube, owner Martin Bird, top bloke, like most the folks there are enthusiasts first and can help / arrange almost anything and its like less than a minute from the track...

Tunnel better for getting on and off than ferry (for me anyway), the only bad bit at the tunnel is the under car scanner bit that's worse than crossing tramlines in Edinburgh...

Make a trip of it, you can hit Zandvoort, Zolder (hotel de pitz with trackside balcony, top class) and Spa as well... Roads from Spa to Bastogne then into Mosel Valley awesome (go as far as Cochem then head north to the Ring)...

Were going this year too but not in the Z (cant fit 3 in her) so we go in the Deli and at the track its a hire car for me...

Top tip, keep a watch in your mirror before entry and on exit of bends for faster traffic and indicate to the right nice and early to let them see you know there there and move over to give room, most of all though... Have fun

My JDM is on a 3 way switch, close, open and automatic as in with the ignition...

Why would both fail? There both the same age... Probably the air con one went first so you might not have noticed that then when the cooling one goes there both knacked...

The fix is easy, check out the guides... Top tip, jack up the car and take it out from below (dead easy)...

Failing that I know Ewen at Clark Motorsport has the Mishimoto ones for much cheapness...

I didn't realise my old X-Trail unit could be updated to like a 2013 map (which is new enough for me tbh)... Think I'll call Nissan tomorrow with the details of the nav system see what they say...

I'm amazed mine hasnt went pop the abuse it gets... Well used to get as its hardly ever out now... I mean the sound it makes at high revs is just so intoxicating...

Hold on, that was me...

After yet another long time off the road over winter the Z is out again... Done a wheel bearing and took the fans out and made them work again...

Next job, a wee look at some paint touch ups, wiper arms look white with corrosion, satav seems to have died and the little digital speedo seems to have a one in front of the numbers ...

Hi there, I'm looking at getting a new disc for the say nav (old one went out the window, dont ask), its an X-Trail 2005 unit, will the 07 disc work and will I need a setup disc as well?

Any suggestions or help welcome, cheers...
