Hi All.

Here's a request to our Moderators. Can you please create a new Gallery section for some picture uploads that I would like to make?

I would suggest that this could be under the heading "2004 EVENTS" with a subsection of "Nissan Style Week - The Racing Spirits" ( if that is not too long :classic: ).

Basically this was the latest instalment of Nissan's round-Japan touring display of old race cars. It took place from 26th December 2003 through to 8th January 2004, and I visited it just after the New Year. The location was the NISSAN GALLERY SAPPORO, in the city of Sapporo naturally, which is the capital city of Japan's northern territory of Hokkaido.

There was one Z car in the display ( the 1971 East African Safari Rally winner - which can also be seen in previous photos taken at Nissan's Ginza showrooms ). The other cars were, for the most part, slightly more modern - but perhaps still of interest to many of us here.

I'll upload the photos to the new section as soon as its been created.

Many thanks to our Moderator / Admin team.

Here's a scan of the poster for the event:

Done... guess we didn't think to add the new year yet cuz things are kinda quiet on this side of the pond for a while....:disappoin

Nice new avatar, Alan. I like it better than the last one. Many thanks for the pictures!

Great. Thanks very much!

Got to go out now, but I'll start uploading when I get home.

All the best,

Alan T.

They're up! Exactly 23 pics. ( spot the significant number ).

Thanks to our Administrators for creating the new section, and for approving the pics so quickly.

This event saw Nissan celebrating another year of racing success ( the 2003 JGTC crown ) and linking it to their current product. All of the Nissan Gallery showrooms in Japan had a visit in 2003 from a selection of sporty models, and actual race cars, from Nissan's long history.

Hope the pics prove of interest.
