I think the Z has slightly lower drivetrain loss than many other RWD cars due to the CF driveshaft and reasonably light wheels. I would have used Nissan's crank numbers

But it looks like they're more interested in comparing dyno numbers between cars to compare relative output, and in that case assuming a fixed value makes the most sense. That lets them use larger numbers for the customers and at the same time compare dyno figures without manufacturer claims changing things. |
