Yeah but who is to say that engine won't be used later on in other models? Also, The Z is looking for a series of gimmicks to push this car cuz americans like gimmicks. The G25 isn't the most desireable option for a G yet it is excluively fitted as a base G motor. Sometimes companies need to take risks.

Nissan can fiddle with cash even with a low selling car like the Z because of cars like the altima, g,sentra, versa and small crossover style vehicles like the exterra , rogue and murano. They are the bread and butter and always recieve trickle down technology.
