SIMPLY JAPANESE: Sunday 2 August Sign up
Pre meet is a good idea- we can all park together then if we're not on a stand. Although the UKLegacy guys don't seem to have any objections to it

Japshow Finale 11th October 2015
One of my mates woke up in a cardboard bin once... Surprisingly intelligent place to sleep. But looks like camping in the leggy is all go now!

Couple of guys on here print vinyl stuff- they might have something. At last I bring some good news! Well, in a way. This evening we took the water pump out to find the impeller inside wasn't attatched to the shaft at all, meaning no water was being pushed around the engine once up to temperature, causing the overheating and thermostat/blocked rad type symptoms. I'm possibly the only person to be genuinely pleased that my water pump is knackered. Also took delivery of some nice silicon pipe work off another GTB that was being broken, so my engine will not only work, but start to look quite good too

I'm 100% up for this. Hopefully my car is too!

Japfest 2 2015 - Rockingham Motor Speedway - 16th August 2015

Are we going to try and go for a stand for this? If numbers are down I know UKLegacy are looking at booking a stand now, so they might need their numbers topped up a bit?

Good plan, if not I'll just have to try and get an earlier night beforehand

Get it right... It was the ImprezKa!

Saves titting about putting a tent up too, seeing as it'll likely be getting dark when I get up there

These things always feel never ending don't they?!

I wish we had checked it before, but there were no leaks from it so we assumed it was ok. Must be the impeller has seized or broken or something.

Japfest 2 2015 - Rockingham Motor Speedway - 16th August 2015
Is it possible to camp at this one? I'm not sure that a 3:30 start did me much good.

Bad news- the car overheated again today. Good news- it's not the head gasket Bad news- it's the water pump. Good news- the one on my old block is sat in the shed!

Japfest 2 2015 - Rockingham Motor Speedway - 16th August 2015
For some reason I thought this was much further away than JapShow. I'll definitely be up for it

I'll do you a deal Gambit... If you come down to this, I'll make the trip up to Japfest 2, if there's enough interest, and JapShow finale (16 hours worth of driving) and I'll even do it in the Legacy!

JapShow 2015 - Sunday 5th July
I really enjoyed today! Apologies for the Ford again... Although it's testomony to what a nice, genuine bunch you are. I hope a few of you can come down for simply japanese (I can actually prove I own a subaru then!)

JapShow 2015 - Sunday 5th July
We're all set- just about to leave. I'm really excited now! Despite not actually being able to drive the GTB :(

You can buy a 5litre bottle at Tesco for a couple of quid

JapShow 2015 - Sunday 5th July
Believe it or not she has already suggested that! If I can find a whiteboard pen, we can make it the ImprezKa

JapShow 2015 - Sunday 5th July
Cheers Gambit, much appreciated. I'll put a couple of spare SOC stickers I have on it

JapShow 2015 - Sunday 5th July
Oh no, I just realised I won't be able to get in early not being on the stand! What's the best way to get in without be held up for ages in traffic? Anyone got a couple of spare seats me and my girlfriend can jump in if we leave her car outside?

I'd imagine that would only happen if there was coolant going into the oil? Which, at this point, I'm lucky enough not to have. It really does just need to be a quick fix to get me through its MOT in a couple of weeks, then I can do something about getting it sorted properly.

JapShow 2015 - Sunday 5th July
It's looking more upsettingly likely that my car isn't going to make it. However, I can bring my girlfriend's KA up so at least I can actually get there and enjoy everyone else's nice, running, cars. I'll know for definite tomorrow though.
