I think somebody noticed that before. The theory is that NNA only has one license plate and they keep switching it around.

its interesting tho' coz as far as I can tell, the sightings are in different places ...

NNA must have several sets of the 562 plate on the road at the same time, !?!

I have sworn not to say. I got them from another very lucky Z fan on this board( by email). Mark my words though. If you can't get the info from'him' then wait till July 3rd. Sorry! Gave my word.

Actually... the magic number is 561, not 562 but hey... it's only one number off so no big deal.

(yes, I too have the numbers.... and so does a few others in here. I guess I should post something, but I don't want to rain on Nissan's parade)

hmm... it's either 300HP w/ 262lb torque, or 295HP and 267lb torque... both of those are jumping out at me for some reason... Also, check out the other post about the 562 upside down reading out 295... Sounds like fun!

based on the math... they said it would have atleast 260lb torque, I've seen sites that leaked 262lb toque... if the redline is 6600rpm, that would place the HP peak at 329HP at crank...

Feel free to e-mail me the numbers you have... I won't leak it... you have my word....

If 561 is the magic number(adding hp & torque), then what is 562 on all the license plate?
does anyone have a scanned image of the kit with all these stats on it? seeing is believing.

They must get the additional 1hp from Nissan Decal. What a cheap OEM used by Nissan! FIrst mod I am gonna do on the Z is remove it and replace it with a 20 HP Type R sticker.

EVERY car (not owned by someone) at Nissan's headquarters has this plate. Altimas, Minivans, Z's, you name it.

Maybe 562 is accurate

Maybe the magic number really is 562. Its unlikely that the HP is exactly 287.0000, maybe its actually 287.4 and the torgue could also be slightly above 274.000, maybe its 274.3, add those two numbers together and you would have 561.7 which would round off to 562. Damn, and to think we might have had the combined HP + torque number for some time and never even known it.
