Nice ride. Gotta love Nissan’s too.

I had a S15 200sx a decade ago. Cat back exhaust, pod filter and 50p rubber hose to replace a restricted air line to increase boost from 7psi to 10psi and I was head to head with a LS1 VX SS to 100mile... lethal

at last someone else on this forum that like Nissan's

[paul450]

looking forward to meet up with the usual suspects and the new faces

Route is all done there are 2 options on the way back.full route is 305 miles if i remeber right but can be shortened and will take a few miles off it. Still up in Aberdeen working and its in my house.will be on some nice roads
Ron slight change on the route back(you will know the road).

I will be going for the meal,but sad to say wont be going on the run
Was meant to get my car back last week but didn't happen and not ready this week either. I will let everybody know the route tonight and most of the scots going will know it anyway.

My interest in Holdens/HSVs took off in 1988 when I visited Australia as a (very!) young man. Spotted Gemini’s/Commodores etc and realised the GM family link to Vauxhall/Opel. Had a 1976 Opel Kadett C at the time. Moved on to Omegas in the ‘90s/early 2000s(4 of them.......still got 2!!!) The GTS/GTSR HSVs were on my radar 20yrs ago,but far too expensive. Still have letters/sales info from “Talacrest”.Went to NZ in 2003 and saw my 1st Monaro in the flesh. Went in every dealership that I saw. “I just want one”. Omegas came and went,but in 2009 I got my hands on one of the last registered 6.0 VXRs. Will be with me until my last breath. My young daughters “get it” and know they will be it’s custodian in due course. Look forward to seeing all you like minded “luddites” tomorrow.
