This goes for the same with my parents 04 Suburban, bass was more than enough but not an aftermarket bump, friends with expensive aftermarket systems always complimented the clearity.

What i think happened with the Z was in the process of Nissan making an affordable sports car they put the smallest sub and speakers they could get just so they could advertise bose instead of the correct but more expensive bose setup that fit the car. at medium volumes the bose in the Z you can already tell is stressing.
