I am going to pick up my 370Z in about 2 weeks and I've been researching the Nissan engine technology a lot. It seems like on the VQ37VHR the intake valves get all the nice technology (VVEL and C-VTC), but the exhaust valves are driven by just "regular old" camshafts. Can anyone confirm this?

Do the exhaust valves at least have C-VTC (variable timing) on them?

BTW...VVEL virtually eliminates the need for a throttle body, which is amazing I think.
