This would be nice, but we're trying to be realistic with our expectations. Nissan already has the 300hp tuned engine and if they want to offer a less expensive option, they would probably use it to not compete against the higher output options. I find it very hard to believe Nissan will release a 400hp Z in the mid 30s. Iw would really detract from the 400hp q60. We see the Z differently than Nissan does. I don't think in their mind, the Z needs to be substantially or at all more powerful than the q(g)50/60. The Z to them is the downmarket more enthusiast version.
