So nice they finally went turbo from the factory. It will be really easy to make 450whp with a tune, down pipes, and exhaust, I am excited to find out the sound that it will produce.

I'm curious about what the final interior would be.

Very well possible this is it — blatant re-use of Z34 parts and elements to hit a competitive price point, and nothing to be mad at — but at the same time it's just strange to me that the body brace and to the hatch almost look like the same space altogether.

I believe the nismo version will just be a similarity between the Base Q50 and the red sport.
In all reality Nissan has always done this, in the red sport they introduced turbo speed sensor and other small things.
Come to realize the base model had about the same potential.

It will follow the same process the A90 Supra did, it grew on people and folks were not timid about tuning and upgraded turbos.

We've seen Q50s hitting a respective 5-700whps on turbos and tuning so it should not so different.

I do see it will suffer from chassis differences and bay space.

In summary: Turbos, Tuning, 55 oil coolers and another color and it will be the perfect vehicle.

Will the Nismo be available same time as the other models?

Twin turbo and a standard gearbox will certainly draw attention to old owners and new enthusiasts alike. I am extremely excited about this offering and in a world where most cars are boring or too common this is a fresh take on an old classic.

I have a general question:

VR30 cooling vs VQ37

Does the VR30 have the same high oil temp issues?
