the intake manifold is bigger because of the dual throttle bodies. crank is a bit larger it also has a girrdle for the crank witch means its stronger. heads a diffrent. its longer deck and rod.

Ok, guys I would love to dyno a car but ITS A BRAND NEW CAR, if my sales manager found out a I took a brand new car to romp the **** out of it Id be dragging my tool box out to the road.
And whoever said that FL only has 2 2007Z's was a little wrong in that. Hell we have 5 at our dealership right now waiting for a new home. The base model san marino stick that I drove, 2 in carbon silver, one enthusiast, and the other a touring. A black one and a white one as well although Im not sure what trim they are.

The hood is NOT just there for looks... the block is taller and the plenum itself is larger. The strutbar itself is a slightly different shape just to fit in there.

Hummmm I disagree. As far as i know there has never been a car company to sell out of all the vehicles they have manufactured in a specific year. If this is true then Nissan must have a few thousand 06 Z sitting around, and if that's the case then the info for the 07 should have never been released. So the waiting continues and so does the option of another car if nissan does not release them soon.

thousands of 06's left over?
I wish they did have that many left over. For what they would ultimately be reducing prices down, I would gladly take an 06 coupe to go with the ZR. The car has more power than is street usable already. Personally a mod here or there is plenty for me. Looking for the 07's to get in so I can get a cheap 06. At this point don't see 06's on lot though.

The 07 shifted the same as my 05, nice and smooth. And yes I believe that Quan still works up front. I dont venture much out of the cave(garage) as its known to go up front.
Hell I never have time to, I was up to my eyeballs today in a Titan taking out the entire friggin dash to replace the passenger airbag module because it has a short.
