Only a 5hp bump at the crank? Very glad I didn't wait for the 07.

 

Only 5 horse power? I thought you guys were saying like +30 or something....wow I'd rather take the 06 than the same thing with an ugly *** hood and 5 horse power....

 

be interesting to see where peak power is at

 

I believe this 305 HP number is based on the new SAE testing procedure. Notice that the '07 G35 coupe dropped from 280 (AT) and 298 (MT) to 275 and 293 HP, compared to '06. It would probably not be too unreasonable to estimate that the '06 Z is at about 282 (AT) and 295 (MT) with the new test. So, I guess the '07 peak is about a 10 HP gain over the '06 MT. Ultimately, though, it's the shape of the torque and HP curves which will be much more interesting than the peak gains.

 

+1

 

It seems you know very little about the 5 extra horses that the HR packs. Congrats on the 06.

 

And the 28lbs.+ of additional torque.

 

so how much more does it weigh...

Ditto ^ its more about how much the area under the torque and power curves increase rather than peak numbers

 

no big diff. i wonder if it gained weight from extra wires (bluetooth) or lost weight. 5hp sucks but imagine if u add 2 intake, spacer, mrev, and exhaust its going to make some good amount hp imo. spacer and mrev probably have to wait til motordyne makes it.
wont the pop charger fit cuz its just the filter replacement.

 

damn, 7,500rpm??
it makes wanna trade in my 04....

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the MREV is a modification to the lower portion of the UIM. The UIM is completely redesigned on the new Z. Furthermore, the spacers/plenums won't work with the VQ35HR as it looks like they won't be needed with the new hood design. There was probably plenty of room for Nissan to even out the airflow themselves.

My '03 was coming off lease and I was planning on grabbing an '07, but with the deletion of the track model, I think I'm just gonna build that FD3S I've been waiting on. Besides, a well-tuned RX-7 will smoke a Z around just about any auto-x, track, or drag strip... and it might even look better doing it.

 

See, here are pictures of the new UIM design. The location of the TB's look better for airflow and the top of the manifold looks like it doesn't pitch forward quite as much. Also, who knows what adjustments they made to the mouths of the runners.

 

not sure what that means.. but dangit, cant wait to drive the 07. Oh yeah, heres the motor:

ok i have to vent, i love my 06 but dammm. it has 5more hp......hey 5hp goes a long way. idc what u say. and 28 more tq. plus it has twin air vents.......and omg 7500rpms OMG **** y didnt i wait..........but the major quesiton is how much does the car weigh now??? i think the twin air vents willl help out a lot. maybe they will be able to convert them to the rev up motor? and i love the rpm omg.

 

I've owned both. Prepare for a money pit with the RX7, if you plan on racing it. The Z is much easier on the wallet, and you don't need a spare motor.

 

wonder how the bluetooth is like... hope it can be obtainable for previous gen's.

 

dude 5 hp at the cranck dont do ****. youll be luck if you feel it.
