I do think a manufacturer could obtain carb approval if they wished, but it is an expensive and lengthy process that in the end may not be worthwhile. Many who wish to modify their cars in this manner are not concerned with carb approval to begin with, which creates another deterrent in getting approval.

I can't speak for George, but that's probably the reason. The car will have +/- 500+ HP and they are going to put their own LSD and their own brakes on the car. The aero package has no value to a tuner shop. If I remember correctly, Central 20 in Japan also opted for the base Fairlady Z34 (370z)
