How soon do you think it will be before we see one of these new engines in the Z platform?

I can't wait to hear a Z scream around 7500rpm. The Mustang guys will be shifting like madmen.

I read forced-induction without building motor. Perhaps the VQ35HR will see its way into 2008 Z allowing 400HP daily driver without engine build?

Default 2007 350z thread

I was at the dealer and planning to get an '07 since it was late in the season to buy an '06, might as well wait. Well, LeMan's Sunset is out for '07! They had Nissan confirm that. Also, there were saying that it wasn't offical, but there woudl be an increase in horsepower. The dealership thought that it was just that the automatic would now be 300 hp. Who knows. I love that Leman's sunset so much, I'm ordering an '06 with it... but if the '07 has the 3.7L engine, I'll be SOL.

I think there has been talk of a slightly over 300HP engine for the 3.5L, but it has been really confusing lately with talk of the GT-S possibly coming out or maybe the use of the 4.5L instead. I wish there was something more official instead of speculation.

Oh really, you care to share with us? Or possibly scan a copy of the brochure? You seem to be so informed.

It’s a chopped sentence to begin with, but I comprehended: any Nissan dealership has info on 07 where I live. Maybe im wrong, it was just a shot in the dark. lol.

i think theyd leave the 4.5L for a completely new body style

the car is selling well, there is no need to spend that kind of cash putting in a new engine, and all the re-engineering that will entail just to move a few more cars

if anything theyll tweak the rev-up engine for more power

Sadly, I think this is what they'll do.

I thought I remembered an article for the new G35C, the 2008, that the 3.5L would be retained but they'd get as much as 330HP out of it.
