I think as a starting point, before we even get to performance, we have to look at the main flaw in the Z: the clutch slave cylinder, which even after TEN YEARS, has never been addressed. It's still the same weakass plastic piece it's always been

As for the engine, it woulda been great to get multiple options, but i'm not expecting some VR38DETT option. Using the VQ in a million platforms is sorta what makes the business case work.

But the G/Q has evolved in the same time period, while the Z has not. That's a pretty bad look.

The Nismo only got real upgrades in 2015, 6 years after release. The prior nismos were virtually identical. Took them that long to get Recaros, and even then, we got half-recaros.

Give us a full fuckin' Recaro Sporters CS at least as an OPTION. And know they have a access to full bucket Recaros in various GTR trims, make them an option.

Right now, you can't even buy the good stuff from Nissan if you WANTED to, unless you wanted to get bent over by dealing with Omori Factory (GLWT). We know they slap GTR brakes on anything over there, give us those

The Nismo fender flares on the 2015+ models? doesn't actuallly improve wheel clearance, it reduces it due to their attachment points. Ridiculous

The 2015+ Nismo shoulda had the pre 2015 nismo wing as an option from the factory

matte version of KAD paint - shoulda been an option, they already have the formula, let us buy it

just laziness
