dual meaning? as in 2 in the stink 1 in the pink?

but i guess it's wrist deep in the stink for you

it's like 3-5% difference between manual and auto I believe.

also you keep it up and i'll be elbow deep in you

400hp with a turbo 6 is a great starting point. I'm sure it will be pretty easy to make quick cheap reliable power out of it.

personally i think we won't be able to squeeze much more out without jeopordizing the reliability...

i mean we got FI builds pushing in the high 4-low 5 range and been fairly reliable but we are also using a larger displacement engine.

it would be cheaper to change parts though because it's already built into it.

sorta like the sti/cla45 amg engine... they're great and all but how much more can you squeeze out of those small engines before POP?

I think it'll be the other way.

look at the GT-R engine. intake/exhaust/tune they gain 100whp avg and it holds up just fine.

hoping it's a strong well built engine like that vs some lame little block at it's limits stock.

well assuming it's as strong as the VHR engine, same restrictive breathing tubes, and a crappy csc...

yea i think it's possible to have it holding 450whp with intake/exhaust/tune.

the clutch (assuming they even make a manual) will probably be the weak point again making another assumption it'll be similiar conversion into the Z

mishuko · 11-25-2015, 12:11 PM

lotta assumptions... can't wait to see a few on the road and tuners pushing these babies.

and then we get kicked in the teeth and they pull a lexus on us.

make the ECU so hard to crack you can't do squat.

UNKNOWN_370 · 11-25-2015, 12:17 PM

So you guys heard??? NO R36 GTR TILL 2020 or later...

I bet same goes for the Z... I'm waiting for next Nissan news which has been iterations of NO NEWS.

Jordo! · 11-25-2015, 01:15 PM

Somebody compare and contrast styling differences between G37 and Z34 then apply same sorts of changes to production ready Q60 -- and that's probably what we'll get for a Z35.

Anybody up for this?

I don't think they will be using the same chassis though. The Z will most likely be built on the grip z chassis.

The Q60 is an advanced FM chassis.

Curious why you think the Z35 will use a GRIP chassis? The Q60 will (more than likely) share the same engine, why not the chassis just like the G37/370?

weight... New technolgy. The Juke platform is the future. Way lighter than the FM.

UNKNOWN_370 · 11-25-2015, 01:58 PM

Oh... The Q60 looks like a"MAXIMA COUPE". Not a fan. The sedan is nicer. All those years waiting for an underwhelming design.
