a DCT? maybe? but that may cut into GT-R territory and at Nissan that's holy sacred ground.

They were not even going to give the Infiniti concept (4 door) with the GTR engine a DCT, they shoved the 7AT in it, I doubt this car with get the DCT.

Nissan should just say something. Very very secretive.
I'll be very happy with Nissan saying something like this: "We will have a new Z35 making 400+HP. It will debut in 2017 in the INSERTNAME autoshow"

You have read for subliminals with Nissan. Answers are in the IDX, grip Z, q 50, q60, Mercedes... & Renault news. You gotta just extract bits & pieces that make sense. The Z is a parts bin car when it comes to engine transmission. Usually chassis too but I think that's changing. I think by next year we will see the new Z at least in pre-production.

![]() I think over rated is kinda strong I would agree to say it's out dated. With the architecture of current vehicles in existence. The GT-R is not visually competitive anymore. ESPECIALLY for the asking price.

All I know is, my current Z will be paid off by 2017, so I'll be ready and waiting
![]() It's either that or a 4C, as it looks like Toyota nixed a boosted FR-S, so bring on the Z35!!! Seriously, how bad could it be? If it sucks that bad, I'll get a 2015 Nismo with the sexy new body kit and swap out my headers, shocks, etc. as needed ![]()

I bet the 300 hp one can be easily tweaked upwards quite a bit if the 400 hp version is substantially more money. I cant wait to see that bad boy dropped inside a Z35 ![]()
