I don't think so, why would they downgrade it and decrease hp, displacement, etc.

I see Nissan making a mini-Z model to compete with the FRS. The Z will probably get either Forced Induction from the factory or get a much larger engine. Perhaps two engine variants?

EDIT: additionally just think carbon fiber is getting cheaper, meaning they can use more of it to decrease weight while maintaining price. Then they will probably add direct injection which will increase power.
