Drop that 400hp q60 3.0t into the Nismo 370z and I'll grab one.

This! + oil and transmission coolers that actually WORK + better rear diff + better seats + more advanced/adjustable traction control (not this evil fuel cut crap).

No stupid drive by wire garbage. No stupid crap that doesn't add to performance.

No stupid "packaging" crap and making people buy garbage nav "systems" that are junk. No stupid "Bose" system.

Simple.

Trust me, I wrote Nissan an unbelievable rant on my last Survey (not that anyone actually reads them, but it felt good).

But at least this is a positive departure from the comment 'not a priority' that was mentioned 6 or so months prior. Something has changed at nissan vis a vis the Z.

Maybe that new upper management change that happened a few months back is starting to have an effect??

I hope they keep the real Z alive, not some conversion to a 4 cyl turbo or hybrid with crossover-styling that costs $75K. If they're going to build that, call it something other than a Z.
