Even though I like the fangs more, I still can't see how a slightly different bumper makes the Z go all the way from pure sex to ugly.
The funnier thing is how you just casually insulted most of the newest forum members in one motion. Well, more precisely you insulted all their Zs en masse. Lols. Tapatalk & such etc Last edited by asdfsammich; 02-09-2013 at 01:27 AM. |

Let me explain,
Too much performance for the Z in terms it will cut into sales of the GT-R and make the Z cost too much. Just throwing in that motor will just be the beginning of costly mods. 400-440bhp would be a great compromise to increased performance without cutting into GT-R sales. |

Pragmatically, it's all about smaller/lighter, i.e. 3k lbs and small disp turbo 6 maybe in the 300's but pushing towards 400 HP.
I wonder how soon we'll know if the Z35 is going to be a 2015 or 2016. Tapatalk & such etc |

The Q60 comes out for 2016 model year, so my guess is the Z will come out a year earlier. |

With all this Nissan going Nismo crazy, it would be nice if they stepped up to the plate like they have been with GTR's every year and add some more meaningful updates. I bought my base sport because on paper, there was 0 difference, and if there was, it didn't merit the $6,000 price difference.
The 2013 brake updates was a long time coming. Adding a legit oil cooler, beefed up abs system, and a better diff would go a long way towards a from the factory track Z which they market, but can't deliver out of the box.

Z32's went from 90-2000, though the last few weren't in the US.

Lols. Getting all postal about the new bumper and wheels doesn't make the 2013 ugly.
Maybe it's the slightly less hot twin but ugly. Nope. Tapatalk & such etc |
