The only engine I can think of that comes close to what you would like (me too) is in the Carrera S. A 3.8 that makes 310 lb./ft.

Nissan could probably make an engine similar to it, but the Z would be very expensive.


The VK45DE from the last gen M45 would've been perfect in this Z. 325-335 range for hp and tq. Plus it would sound badass.
