You may have had some air in your radiator that was finally bubbled out with your high-rpm track day. Then when things cooled, the radiator pulled coolant from the surge tank back into the system and the level dropped. Or you're burning/leaking coolant, but you'd have signs (smoke/puddle).
Okay gotcha. I'll just go ahead and buy some more coolant then. Any other places besides directly from Nissan to buy the coolant from?
