I think that is the way I am leaning at this point, although I don't know if it will be a new Z or something else entirely.

I don't think this would be route I would take but I'm curious if anyone on the forum has successfully done this and what the final out-the-door costs for all of it was.

The GT-R engine? Interesting...does that really just drop into a 370? What is involved with an engine swap like that? That's about 500-550hp, right?

I'm in CA so I'm cautious about planning a tune for the new Z as I'm not sure it will pass smog. I wouldn't need to worry about it for the first 6 years, though, so it would be down the road. ...

I ended up getting a rear view mirror touchscreen front/rear camera setup that works well. The wiring was easy to route and it removes the need for camera real estate on the windows.

Welder for leaky oil cooler?

Hi guys,

Thank you!
