I am sure Nissan has something in the works for the next gen Z. I can see the bumps in power of the GTR for the next 2 years being a sign they are paying attention to the competition for the Z. I feel like they are trying to open up some room to grow the Z's power without it competing with the GTR in any way.
There are a lot of options they have available, but I would like to see them just add an electric motor that is good for 80 to 100 hp and keep the 3.7L engine. Maybe throw on DI as well. That should send the mpg up pretty considerably while at the same time bumping overall performance provided they stay on top of the suspension.
That or they need to drop a good 200 pounds.
