When is the 350 going to get the 3.7 engine???????????
 

Tried a search and found nothing, sorry if this has been dicussed already. Back to the original question, why wouldn't they have put the 3.7 in the Z this year?

Maybe they want to wait for a major redesign before dropping in the new motor. The G series are already a new design, so it gets the new motor.

The G series is a new design, but it is not like they changed a lot. It seems more like a refresh to me.

IMO i say 08. Nissan aint gonna let the Z be slower than the G.

Sure they will....I have a gut feeling they'll slap the 3.8L GT-R engine(minus turbos of course) in the 2009 redesign and call it a 380Z. That rolls off the tongue much better than 370Z... Keep in mind that my gut also has a tendency to give me false info

i agree...370Z sounds dumb IMO. But wow a 380Z?? THAT sounds like a winner. Cant wait for that to happen IF it happens. And yeah they cant leave their Z lineup with smaller/slower engines than the G's. Even tho i have lots of love for my future car. lol

Look at the Z history. How often does the Z get a bump in displacement?

Well in japan they have a 3.8 version of the VQ already.

On what?

It's in the RS concept and talks of it being in the GTR.

only in the RS or have they dropped it into the FX, M, etc...?

Its only in the 380RS competition car. 395hp NA FTW!

Why dont u search.

I think the New body Z will get the new engine, and 08 will stay the same

Why you post a pic of the 3.5 liter VQHR?

Anways heres a couple pics of the Version Nismo 3.8 RS

Check out those long tubes!!!!

screw 380z, we need the titan v8 in there, 570z sounds much better.

LOL could you imagine how the torque would be. And imagine what TT kits would put out with that displacement.

^^^I wasn't joking, i'm serious. Just bump the compression up to 11:1 or so, all motor baby. Or we could do 8:1 and run 16lbs of boost...would need 345's out back from the factory...insurance would kill me though...if the car didn't first.
