Nice car! Do the tinted headlights still give enough light?

Those headers are awesome!

Gotta love blue! Nice car!

the azure ones always do eh? Your posts makes me want to be in scotland...if you can make the trip, then I certainly have no reason not to! Haha! The blue ones defo look good. The trip is really worth it!

It still looks very tidy for the milage.

I drove 3700 kms in total with the trip. My front tires had plenty of rubber. But somehow I ****ed up the allignment on the Scottish roads. Hahah! We didn't plan that much actually. But my advise is to book your hotels in advance. There are plenty of hotels or B&Bs, but since they are all relatively small they are fast fully booked. I booked the following places during one week. - Boat: Ijmuiden NL --> Newcastle (including stay overnight) - Columba Hotel Inverness - Gairloch Highland Lodge: incluiding a detour trough Isle of Skye that day. It was a bit to much for one day driving. Hehe!) - Rhiconich Hotel: It's better to drive the west coast in two days. If you want to see something. - Seaview Hotel John O'Groats - Pentahotel Inverness: Damn those roads on the east coast! Want to go back! - Dalhousie Castle Hotel Edinburgh - Boat: Newcastle --> Ijmuiden NL (including stay overnight) I want to drive it again, but for sure I'm going to stay for more then one week.

Nice Z!

Nice!

Vast wel! I think we were lucky... But I loved every minute, I want to go back. Only thing that didn't like Scotland were my front tires. Hahaha!

She is getting ready! This is where I am right now. Got my car back home. What we've done so far this winter: - New oil MPM 10W50 - New gear oil - New diff oil - Exedy Hyper single clutch/flywheel - New clutch bearing - Complete underbody sealant - Poadercoated several items underneath - Hotchkiss swaybars front and rear - Replaced the catalytic converters (sold the testpipes) I just love how the car handles right now. It's a bit more direct on the steering just mike my 1-Series M and it feels more solid on the streets. The clutch / flywheel is a different story. Really love the feeling, but it's a bit hard when driving around in the village. The engine feels more alive without the excessive wheigt from the original parts. The noise the clutch makes when it's fully warmed up isn't normal. I didn't knew what I heared the first time. But now I love it, sounds so much more racy. Hehe! Can't wait to drive it more often! Things to do: - Mount carbon front lip - respray front bumper But first my wintersports in March. I will see after that how much time and money I've got. Hahah!

Got myself a carbon goodie! I only need to get rid of the holes in my bumper. I want a sticker instead of the huge license plate...

The car is doing great at the moment. Done lot's of things last year... - 4 new tires :S - New exhaust: HKS Replica Dual - Fitted the testpipes again - Did some respray work - Replaced a few O2 sensors - Tried to solve the oil problem (little bit better now) - Got my wheels refurbished after a Scotland road trip (three wheels we're dented and one was leaking air) - Tinted the windows all around - Etc etc etc... At the end of June me and my girlfriend decided to drive the North Coast 500. Some photos from this unbelievable road trip. North Coast 500: More than 500 miles of the best the North Highlands has to offer. The route way runs to and from Inverness, venturing round the capital of the Highlands, up the West Coast and back via the rugged north coast. Still in love with Scotland. I wanna go back some time soon...

I bought some matching lug nuts from Driftworks... Now I'm going to put it in the garage for the winter. It's going to need some love. To do: - Rusty rear quarters again... - Exhaust is broken somewhere in the middle - Check light (test pipes) - New brakes all around - Engine check-up (it's smokes quite a lot in the higher revs, looks like benzine but I think some oil too) - Radio needs some TLC - Who knows what else?!?

Maybe this is a better place to continue with the story of my Z. Just a little reminder where it all started almost two years ago. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hi! My name is Hans and I'm living in The Netherlands. Hansburger is my nickname and the name from my little photography company/website: http://www.hansburger.nl. Since a couple of months I bought myself a little present. A 2004 Nissan 350Z! It has changed already a little bit... This is the way I bought the car. Dirty,filthy, rusty, scratches, etc, etc, etc... http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/WP_20150609_002.jpg First upgrade! (9J front en 11J rear). http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/WP_20150622_023.jpg Lowered the car a little with Intrax. http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/WP_20150706_002.jpg After 32 hours of work this is the end result... http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11741220_710621982375585_7873749301180495364_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11412057_710621412375642_9167077511492804113_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11411764_710621762375607_8105968781539123155_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/10857220_710620962375687_8454889093122602888_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11741277_710619845709132_8229298815747886861_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11698986_710621582375625_5596383687228997856_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11709689_710621442375639_366724016286177059_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11722603_710619385709178_4528805557420245651_o.jpg More pics: Exclusive CarCare Portfolio Nissan 350Z Time Attack in France. http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11145175_1005392149505006_1558201338290821675_o.jpg In the meanwhile I changed some other items. The gear know was completely worn. So I got myself a new one. http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/WP_20150725_15_49_10_Pro.jpg I think I needed a new airfilter... Old Vs New! http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11951547_10153635218399264_7495977937742902044_o.jpg http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11951685_10153635334059264_4613439227719006191_o.jpg Looks good in blue?? Isn't it?!? http://www.hansburger.nl/hans/11988404_1048000398558186_8282207669361149674_n.jpg I also got two Invidia test pipes fitted. It sounds a little better now. Future plans: - I need new brakes all around. - Two new rear tyres... 285/30 R20 :S - New clutch?!? - Need to do some more repairs to the rear quarters. That rust is really hard to get rid of. - Who knows what else?!?

Added!

Thanks! Wil order them soon.

How much to get this shipped to the Netherlands?

Got myself a carbon goodie! I only need to get rid of the holes in my bumper. I want a sticker instead of the huge license plate...

I think it's the same system as the exhaust we fitted on my car this year. Sounds really awesome with the dual pipes, but fitting it underneath the car is a pain in the ass. It's a USA system and therefor used for Z's with the smaller non LSD diff. We needed to cut my exhaust on three places and welded it back together. I wanted the car to be a bit more extreme and fitted the Invidia Testpipes I got. It destroyed the middle demper and it's just way to loud sounding like @*!#. I'm going to ditch the testpipes again this winter and need to fix the middle box.

Thanks!

We've been there at the end of June. We didn't see many tourists on out trip.

I even met a fellow Z driver in the most north point of the mainland, John o'Groats.

Thanks! It really is a brilliant place! We've been there for one week, it was a bit short in my opinion. We also drove around Isle of Skye.

I will remember this one! Looks like a nice trip. I will put this on the Dutch 350Z forum. Who knows there are more people who want to join.
