May take a lot longer. Cars are not selling. No cash available to develop new cars, and credit is scarce. The auto industry is in big, big trouble. I think there will be many fewer and less frequent new cars in the future.

Even before the trouble, I believe they didn't plan to put DI in the Z until 2014..

FWIW, I think someone posted a few months back that they had "inside info" that the Z was getting DI for the 2011 model year. Judging from how Nissan handled the 350, I would expect at least a small bump in hp for the 2011 model year.

I think that was me, lol. The salesman at the Nissan delarship I went to said he "had it on good authority" that the Z was getting DI for 2011. Take it for what it's worth though since it's coming from a salesman.
