Don't know if we have it or not TBO... it just gives a better fuel mixture which yields some small performance and fuel efficiency gains.

The 370Z doesn't have direct injection. The link you posted says direct ignition.

No DI for the 370z. IMO, we won't see it on this generation. Wouldn't be surprised to see it in Nissan's new 3 liter turbo motor, however, which may/may not go into the next Z.

The next gen Z will probably get DI regardless of whether it stays N/A or goes FI.

I was going to say... no way we would get 33hp from moving the injectors to the top of the block.

The accuracy of injection control allows it these days, it saves the intake runners getting it/valves getting in the way, by injecting it straight into the cylinder like the spark plug is.

Fancy diesels have had it for some years, but they're built like tractors anyway and need all the help they can get.

The new VK56 motor in the M56 has VVEL and direct injection. It's running 420 hp and 417 lb ft of torque. This is in a luxury vehicle and most likely toned down a bit. Now we need a mad scientist to get that in a Z. I'm salivating at the mouth right now.
abm89 and Raveren like this.

Which would be awesome if they could fit it in the Z
