Z35 motor theory

We need a direct injected, higher compression NA 3.8L V-6 out of the GTR that's not hand built. 400 hp & 300 tq and the car needs to weigh 3K. 25 mpg combined due to the direct injection. Yeah... better stock exhaust note. Oh yeah, and I want those red Recaros out of the '15 Nismo. That would be $$$.

That don't sound to bad. I wonder how much more the new Z will cost.

The same, maybe a little less. Gotta compete with the Mustang and Camaro. I love the Z, but a Mustang GT is a great value and can be built to handle.

I did say that I love the Z, did I not? Why would I trade my car if I love it? Am I not allowed to recognize that there are other vehicles out there that can be compared to the Z in both specs and price?

Also, look forward to the first Infiniti model vehicle built outside of Japan to be produced in good ol' TN. Is that a bad thing? Not when you figure out that the Japanese have decided the quality of vehicles coming out of Smyrna is good enough to carry the Infiniti brand name.

Now, back on topic I wish I could get some intel on the next Z but I'll speculate with the best of them. The next gen GTR will have a new engine producing 800hp. That leaves this motor as a left over that could be shoved into the Z35.

380Z Makes a lot of senses. it even sounds right

240z (2400cc), 260z(2600cc), 280z (2800cc), 300zx (3000cc), 350z (3500cc), 370z (3700cc), and they are all 6 cylinders.

380z sounds good. 380 hp and 320 torque would be awesome. Maintain the high quality of the interiors and reduce 200 lbs and it should be good to go.

One can hope and dream. But are you aware if Nissan pulled this off, you're talking almost exact numbers to a Porsche 911S?

That being said, if Nissan did create this for under $50k, I'm in.

Agree. Instead of being a poor man's Cayman, I wish the next Z to be a poor man's 911.
