Nissan Juke, the beginning of the return of Turbocharged Z's?

Probably not, sort of. A lot of companies are going to move this direction, smaller displacement with a turbo. This provides the ability to up MPG while still providing power

On the argument of a Z getting a turbo, probably not in a VQ3.7L size, but maybe a smaller engine. Though really, I feel for the Z or Nissan's next sport car it is about DI testing.

of course, thats why I said, revive the 300ZX, the Z with a 3.0L DOHC DI Turbo with approx. 375 bhp will be perfect!!!


Ford is considering it with the F150 and the Mustang, I think that if Nissan do this in the Z it will be a grand slam!!!

also i will like to see the 1.6L DI Turbo on the Nissan Sentra SE-R...
