Next z model

triso07 · 01-14-2015, 09:49 AM

We should start an online campaign to get some damn info out of Nissan. It's brutal that there is just radio silence.

I'm in the market and I really like the new Nismo Z but I don't want to spend the money if Nissan is bringing out a new Z soon. I'd rather wait and see what's offered.

40k starting probably, maybe 35k if we are lucky for a base level model to get people in (missing key options of course).

You will be waiting until 2017 for the new Z.
Silence is because they are probably done and trying to figure out the little details. Like will it have 2 engines, price point to offer, where to announce & when. Nissan is not stupid with the Z, they know each time they release a new one it has to be center stage for the brand only 2nd to the GTR. So if both the GTR & Z get complete overhauls for 2017 it will be a balancing act of which is 1st and when.

Can't wait till we start getting pics, that new Q60 coupe is going to be sexy based on the concept. Maybe Nissan will show Z at Detroit show next year.

Last Z was at the LA Auto Show so they might repeat that.
Detroit usually gets overshadowed by the American big 3 (look at the new NSX and how little press it is getting versus the new Ford GT), so they might reveal it in 2016 at LA.

Q60 (g37) concept was released with a new 3.0L V6 Twin Turbo engine made by Mercedes, this leads to the new Z sharing the same engine.

Thanks for the info bro!!

Looks like the z35 might be in my future in 2018 (gives them some time to work out the kinks) if it looks good and gets good numbers from this engine.

DOOMMONKEY777 · 01-14-2015, 03:11 PM

I am disappointed. I think VQ has more potential as stock than that MB 3.0L v6. I just think u can still pull out more # out of stock TT VQ vs the new probably same price as to buy 370z and TT it than a next Z TT, not to mention if u ever going to upgrade it, maan what a deep pocket u need.

Even though the displacement is less there's still so much potential with FI engines. From tunes, to intercoolers, downpipes and everything in between you can achieve massive gains. All this with better fuel economy and loads more torque. The future is bright. P.S. Start saving for wider and stickier tires, you'll need 'em.

Been waiting years for a new TOOL album. Everything I've read sounds like this is the year. Instrumentals appear to be done (for the most part) and Maynard is finally working on lyrics. IT BETTER NOT SUCK

Tick64 · 01-14-2015, 09:59 PM

They haven't released ANY info regarding price. I wouldn't stress about it yet man.

brucelidat · 01-14-2015, 11:00 PM

I doubt the new one will cost as much as TT-ing the existing one. That's 10k+. There's no way they're releasing the Z at 45k or so.

After a quick search on the interwebs:

Best Mercedes tuning value? A preview of the 330 horsepower Mercedes M276 DELA 30 Twin Turbo 3.0 liter V6 going into the W205/C205 C400
Here is the Mercedes-Benz answer to the BMW N55 3.0 liter turbocharged inline-6 and the Audi supercharged 3.0 TFSI V6. This new motor will be called the M276 DELA 30 and will have 3.0 liters of displacement in a V6 configuration with two turbochargers. The motor is based on the same direct injected M276 60 degree V6 architecture in the M276 naturally aspirated C350 models but with displacement reduced to 3.0 liters and compression reduced from 12.2:1 to 10.7:1.

This motor will see duty in the C400 4Matic model BenzBoost showed is coming in the next generation C205/W205 generation C-Class. An all wheel drive C-Class with a twin turbo six cylinder powerplant may end being the best tuning value in the Mercedes lineup. Not to mention Mercedes-Benz will now have a true rival for the BMW 335i and the Audi S4.

Power will be somewhere in the 330 horsepower range with torque at 354 pound-feet. High 12 second non-AMG C-Class? Low 12's or high 11's with just a tune? Sure looks realistic especially with the all wheel drive C400.

The block will have an aluminum block with forged internals and the engine will weigh 395 pounds. The turbochargers are manufactured by IHI who also supplies Audi's 4.0 TFSI turbochargers.

Check out the dynograph below to see how the M276 DELA 30 stacks up to the naturally aspirated M276 DE 35.

This is going to be a very exciting motor and a great tuning value for those who do not want to spend $100k+ for the 63 AMG M156 bi-turbos.

Rated Power 245kw @ 5250-6000rpm
Max torque 480Nm @ 1600-4000rpm
Bore x Stroke 88mm x 82.1mm
Compression ratio 10.7:1cr
Engine Weight DIN 70020GZ 179.2Kg
