Yep. Another clue pointing to something happening with the Z.

Another interesting nugget in Nissan’s Canadian trademark filing is a reference to the logo being used with “Electrically-assisted land vehicles...”

I believe the electric assist is in reference to the new Nissan logo, not the new Z logo.

KCZ 03-20-2020 04:47 PM
That's not a new Z logo at all. It's the old Z logo, used on the 240-260-280's. It seems to fit with the report that the next redesign will take some cues from the 240Z's.

Anybody read Forbes? He didn't seem to state his source [sigh], but I'll post the article anyway:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/peterly.../#60a209b2af41

So if Nissan does to the 370Z like they did with the Frontier with an engine replacement, it might be slightly promising. Throw in an interior refresh, then we're talking. If the brand new model is going to be some sort of hybrid and drops the manual transmission I plan to just get the last remaining model before it goes completely EOL.

Time to put some money in the bank.

When he said this in the article. The whole thing became bullchit. :shakes head:

"An updated Nismo-spec Z, developed by Nissan’s in-house racing and customizing arm, which was added to the lineup in 2017, employed a tweaked V6 generating 350hp."

tvfreakazoid 03-27-2020 05:22 AM
Well with all the fearmongering going I wouldn't expect a new Z and gtr for a while.

I'll be in my bunk!

Old news. He states his source is Japan’s Best Car Magazine. The magazine says it’s sources are Nissan insiders. I posted a picture from the article several weeks ago.

The 2021 Z will have the engine from the Infiniti Q60 Red Sport- 3.0L V6 twin turbo, probably tuned so it would have a bit more than the Q60 Red Sport's 400hp. Hopefully a manual would be available. It wouldn't have the new 3.8L V6 non-turbo engine that the Frontier is getting which was designed for trucks.

That has been said every year since the VR30 hit the market. Don't hold your breath

I don't think it's dead but I don't expect to see one for a while. Guessing a couple years without one and by then who knows

At this point, instead of waiting for the all new Z car
I’m really contemplating a used GTR.

This. I've watched for years now and it's usually around this time of year that people are like "we're gonna see the new version at the Tokyo Auto Salon in the Fall". I've had false hope on that too many times now (literally since 2017), and I'm at a point where a low mile GTR is more in my budget than when I first acquired a 370Z. And it's on par with what you pay for the new Supra and what will likely be the cost of the next Z.

Also, not sure if you guys have seen some of the concepts, but I basically hate all the ones floating around which doesn't give me much hope. Hoping they're all fabbed.

Yeap, the 300zxtt's had it back in the 90's. Those cars were not cheap to maintain. I expect the exact same out of a GTR. Modifying one is crazy expensive. I'll pass all day long.

What truck was the VQ35 ever used in? The Frontier (and my Xterra which is no longer made) uses the 4.0L V6 which designed for truck use.

JARblue 04-12-2020 11:32 PM
Hey remember when the Z35 was coming out?

Still not a new Z. Just an overhaul piece-mealing a bunch of other model parts together. Looks like it will be a bastardized version of a Z :( Hopefully it will at least be fun to :driving:

Zingston 04-14-2020 10:33 AM
Nah... nah... nah... see... If that's the new Z, then what's this Z?

Those lines are so sleek, design so sexy! Oh lawdy, wtf is that!! :facepalm::icon14::facepalm: Should be called the new Pulsar NX. :icon17:

And yet for each new article over the past 5 years, there's always somebody that thinks they're the first to uncover the next new Z. :facepalm:

Yeah, where's that test mule???? What happened to that bs?? :icon17:

I’m sure you’re not referring to me as I have never said anything like that. This thread was set up to post information and discuss the next Z. Why is it when someone does that, they get put down? Strange bunch here.

Im not sure why you took any of those comments personally. The way i read them, nothing was directed at you. What a lot of us find entertaining is the constant 'new Z' articles the media generates. I mean, how many more are we going to see? They've cried wolf way too many times. And now with Nissan seemingly in financial difficulty, any talk of the new Z is that much more unbelievable.

Of course, we all hope they do offer a new Z, but it's more of a we'll believe it when we see it situation at this point.

Who put you down?

Rusty 04-14-2020 09:47 PM
I was taking it as Jar was talking about the 3 that write all of the articles all the time. Not you 280.........unless you write the articles.

Spooler 04-14-2020 10:33 PM
