i think they'd have an easier time marketing a turbo car than a v8. at this point, v8=automatically bad for the environment, gas guzzler (regardless of whether or not thats true). Turbos are becoming increasingly popular with the new diesel engines which have the whole "green" thing going for them. i see a twin turbo v6 fitting the Z a lot more in terms of character than a v8. plus, if it were to come with a factory turbo... that creates a lot of options for the aftermarket. keep in mind though, they don't want to eat away at the GTR. so they're probably gonna keep their distance in terms of power from the GTR.
