It is a simple unequal length "A" arm designed with forged aluminum links, looking like a close relative of the parts on the R35 Skyline GT-R. In fact it would not surprise us at all if all of the FM2 chassis share many of the same parts. The all important suspension geometry looks to be properly done with decent lengths of the upper and lower links for reduced scrub and bump steer with a relatively aggressive negative gain camber curve to help keep the tire tread flat on the road under roll."

heres another quote from a reviewer that states the 350z does not have a double wishbone, "That is made possible by the new double-wishbone front suspension that replaces the lower multi-link setup in the 350Z and uses lighter forged aluminum arms, a lightweight rigid aluminum-alloy cradle, a lighter, link stabilizer bar with a 35% improved lever ratio, and new high-response shock absorbers. The new 3-piece strut tower brace stiffens and quickens the front’s response."

Hence multi link AND double wishbone are both accurate descriptions of what the car has. A 370Z is similar, but does not have the split lower link, instead it is just 1 piece.
