Factory TT Z33?

no.

but what "i've heard" from tidbits here and there is that nissan japan has not ruled out a factory blown Z33 for future production.. ala Supra-Competition time frame....

hmmm.... from an observation stand point, something is telling me to look at the Frontier and Xterra as examples of alternate boost ideas from the good ol' engineers at Nissan.

hopefully Nissan has learned from the cheesy supercharger look of Stealin' and makes a turbo. At the very least they'll get buyers of the original Z to take a look and have another mid-life crisis over a new blown Z.

Plus the new Supra is looming, and Toyota is watching the import crowd and their appetite for turboed cars.

Never! no v8 either! you want a twin turbo? the GTR is coming .expect to shell out $60k for a car that will give the 911 something to fear.

But you also have the option of getting a $26K Z as well; the price is what makes this car so attractive. Great performance and in the price range of a 4 banger.

As for a TT, just think and humor me for a moment, the Greddy and PE TT kits run about $4000-$7000. Add labor which is an additional $1000 and you've just made the cheapest Z the same cost as the Track Z, and the Track Z is now in the Boxster, Corvette stage. This is what made the Z go away in the first place. The Z is fine as an NA car; if you guys wanted supergreat performance from the shop AND a TT already in the car you probably should've invested in an Audi.

i dont think the fully load z costs anywhere near 40000
i got my fully loaded touring except for the side curtain airbags. all this totalled 35000....
with a v8 or tt the price would have to be 40-45000 fully loaded. ne thing more then that would just be sick.
