Honestly now, do you know how to read? I'm being serious!

Don't mind him, he is just upset he didn't get some Miata doors.

He probably wants some Miata side mirrors while he's at it :rofl2:

Read what? Your dribble about the Z car and its engine or the LSD or lack or oil cooler?

Read the part in bold, this is what I have been talking about the entire time. You keep ignoring it other than a single post saying you randomly read it. I contoured with saying that is false information which has been thrown around here time and again as false rumors. I asked for a source, but you began this rant about me "need to read" while ignoring what I was asking which is rather simple.

Supposedly it will have a lot more torque and be more refined vs. the max-out /trashy VQ.
Everything you have posted about the Z has been false, rumor mill information which was a denied time and again by Nissan directly, or flat out ignorance by a random internet blogger.

theDreamer - here, i did mrcarditroll's homework for him:

Mercedes-Benz-Powered Nissan Z - Car News - RoadandTrack.com

Quote:
If a diesel makes its way into the Z, it will be the 3.0-liter unit from the E350 BlueTEC. This powerplant puts out 211 bhp, making it much less powerful than the gasoline engine in the current Z, but torque is rated at nearly 400 lb.-ft. The hybrid option will most likely be the 3.5-liter V-6 mated with an electric motor—the setup currently in the S400 sedan. As for the possibility of a V-8-powered Z, we feel that it’s far-fetched at this point, but both Mercedes-Benz’s 5.5-liter and Nissan’s 5.6-liter make sense. If Nissan engineers design the next Z to accommodate one of these potent engines, then the Z will have the power-to-weight chops to take on the Chevrolet Corvette. Nissan can even toy with the idea of fitting Mercedes-Benz’s 500-plus-bhp AMG engine, creating a beast that’ll give the GT-R a run for its money.
Can I say...uh...NO THANKS. You're an idiot if you think the Z would be better with an ecotech-esque DIESEL engine, or a hybrid.

and my gut feel tells me that the original Mr. Z will never, ever let his car get a V8 out of the box. the 370Z already goes against his basic tenet of offering a good quality and affordable sports car by its hefty tag (in comparison to previous model Zs). putting a v8 and jacking up the price even more? not going to happen.

Ward's 10 Best Engines
And? The 2.3L DISI MZR (Mazdaspeed 3/6) has been on Ward's Ten Best since it's been out.

Perfect? Hell no.

Troll???

Oh looky here another butt hurt fanboi!!!

But yes I believe that's what I read, I didn't say it was going to happen for sure. But it would be nice if Nissan did away with the VQ and fixed the other issues mentioned.

You ramble much???

Dear God! I said for you to look it up and that it should be EASY to find.

It seems as though you're absolutely terrified at the idea of Nissan actually improving faults in your precious 370z.

What issues?
I have zero problems, brakes are perfect, no oil heating issues, and the LSD is fantastic compared to no other. Maybe you need to start to drive your Z more...wait you do own a 370z right?

Sorry I tend to give, not receive. If that's the way you go though, I hear frost and Caravan are offering specials.

Oh, and I still don't see anything about the upgraded LSD, or an included oil cooler.

Anyway, Dreamer says I need to get back to my pillows, so back I go :tup:

BTW - Mr. MS3, you did drive a 370 before you wrote all this drivel...

right? :ugh2:

The point is for you to provide the information which you are writing.
I can randomly write information about the MS3 or new BMW 1 series M car, but no one will believe me unless I post an article backing me up.
You provided no information to back your claim, all you did was tell others to look it up and find the information you are writing.

Okay brain, who said "I" wanted that specific engine in the 370z??? Are you okay? I just stated that Nissan is apparently looking at other engine options.

Why do I feel like I'm arguing with 18 yr olds?
