Did Nissan happen to release any engine specs for the Car. I am suprised that they showed this car so soon. i remember hearing about Nissan officials being sighted all around the place at Daytona. Does that mean that this car will also participate in Lemans? What class is this in? I need info, feed me someone, please. This is great news because i think Nissan is also developing a new 3.5L V8 for Lemans, The next GTR engine in my mind, I am just so excited. Long Live Nissan.

 

the fenders are SOOO wide....wow..

 

Holy Monkey...440 hp, 1100kg, 11 inch wide wheels front and back...that thing must fly!!! Thanks for digging those pics!

 

I'm starting to think that you can put a tractor trailor wheel on this Z and it'll still fit. 11' width is amazing....

 

the last piece of that lil presentation where you actually hear the engine purrr... mmmm yummyyy!!!!!! 11"!??!?!?

DO NOT DO THIS TO YOUR Z!!!

If you race okay... if you have a street Z and I catch you doing this to it I will shoot you on spot!!!!

Your Z would have to catch my Z first! But really...I would do something like this if I had 450+ hp to back it up.

 

Wonderful site!! I need that Momo wheel in my Z and one of those radios, too. The NAV screens look like Anime', some at least. They are a lot more colorful than our equipment, I am very jealous; our stuff is boring by comparison. Eye candy for sure.

Upon reflection, they could be distracting at speed; the last article I read, the average spd on Japanese roads was 37 mph so they need to be entertained while they inch forward in traffic. I(we) would not need such distraction at our spds, but they are beautiful indeed.

I just realized where I had seen some of the radios/cd players. Any of you see the movie "Ghost Dog" with Forrest Whittaker? There were several radios like those in the cars he boosted(I haven't been getting out much, I'm just lagging a bit). Compelling movie too, you might enjoy it.

It looks like racing big time to me, GREAT! I'll start going to the tracks again if they are going to run 350s on them.

I am feeling lazy and would like to know what the conversion of the torque on this baby to our american measurements.

 

I ordered a track, and I love the spoiler package, but now I wish the rear spoiler were a little more aggresive. If I had known about this i might have gone with a performance model and added stuff a la cart. Just as well, that wing might be a little over the top.

But, what the Hell grew out of the "no nave hole"?

Cool shot, thanks for sharing!

Love the wheels........11's are a bit extreme for the street though. Anyone think NISMO will offer "street" versions? I'd be VERY interested.

 

2...ni.... 3... san

The same numbers on the 1997 Nissan LeMans entry... Red and black car... beautiful car.... picture hangs in my study room...


I am sure you guys have read that Nissan wants to enter LeMans next year -- with the 350Z .... and back into the Japan GT series in the 3000 class.

I love it....
