[OFFICIAL] Discussion for the next new Nissan 400Z Z35?

Nothing is certain.

If they have a chassis that is 2800-2900 lbs with that motor it will scoot. The thing that concerns me is the high amount of boost for a daily driver.

Wonka2581 · 10-31-2015, 01:26 PM

Why wont they just use the motor we already have and TT it?

Need something lighter and get better gas mileage than the current 3.7

I really hate EPS. Even when it's good, it's still bad.

FPenvy · 11-02-2015, 07:43 AM

man there's some whiny bitches in here lol

FPenvy · 11-02-2015, 09:17 AM

also quit bitching about EPS because Nissan boss said the GTR and Z will have auto drive stuff in them before the end of the decade. it'll just drive itself lol

Figures the guy who wants the car to shift itself would be in favor of the car steering itself.

those engine options 1 & 2 sound good, a little dissapointed for the v6 tt only making 340hp, (I know 'turn up the boost bro' crowd will disagree, but what about us who wish to keep the warranty and keep the car stock, yet keep up with most modern sports cars?), I feel like 380hp for the based and maybe 400-420 for the nismo, and keep both under 3300lbs

I agree.

deftoneZ · 11-05-2015, 06:28 AM

I do not see a 4 banger option coming. For as much as they constantly talk about the Z and its heritage, keep in mind that no Z has ever had anything other than a 6 of some fashion. I don't see them starting now, there isn't a lot to be gained by it. Look at Hyundai and the Genesis coupe 4, they actually ended up dropping it .. and for good reason.

RicerX · 11-05-2015, 08:44 AM

The 4 banger turbo four that is listed is available in the Q50 for MY2016 already. It'll show up in the Q60, which means that if the next Z is to share the same platform, they'll be set up to accommodate multiple engine options.

They still have to greenlight the idea, but the architecture is there for them to go with it.

GZ3 · 11-05-2015, 08:48 AM

really hope they dont, but if it means getting a proper Z back in the market then I guess its not a big deal.

FPenvy · 11-05-2015, 08:50 AM

Nissan need to release info pretty soon. i'm about over this waiting around nonsense.

I want info dammit!
