Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo (Z32)

[vividracing]

New Post has been published on https://www.vividracing.com/blog/139824-2/

In 2022, car enthusiasts all over the United States were anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Nissan Z. In the new Z, not 400Z, it seems Nissan answered all of our prayers. Equipped with a 3.0L VR30DDTT Twin Turbo V6 and a 6 speed FS6R31 manual transmission, the new Z34 (Kouki Z34) seemed to fill all the gaps Nissan left in the Zenki Z34 and R35 that left true drivers wanting more. With a power output at an even 400hp (298kw; 406ps) and 350 ftlbs (475 N-m 48 kg-m) of torque, the new Z34 was unlike any of its predecessors and a breath of fresh air in the middle of the ‘Sports Car Electrification Movement’. Nissan then broke some hearts, mine included, when they announced the 420hp, 384ftlb Z34 Nismo would be equipped with a rebadged Mercedes 9G-Tronic automatic transmission manufactured under Jatco as the JR913E and that there would be no manual option for the Nismo Z. Their reasoning: Even with more power, the automatic sport model would be faster in the ¼ mile than a manual Nismo, and they feared consumers would care.

Fast forward to release day, and the reasonably priced Nissan Z saw dealer markups of over $70,000 over MSRP on what could be Nissan’s final true sports car. Somehow, clout and fear of missing out beat common sense and they sold like hotcakes. So much so, that as of the writing of this article, the least expensive USED Nissan Z on the market is being offered at $7,000 above NEW MSRP. Now to bring it all into perspective, if you were an early buyer of a Nissan Z, you’re punching in Audi RS5 Coupe, BMW M4 Competition xDrive, and C8 Corvette territory price-wise, except you likely have cloth seats, less power, and are a good deal slower from 0-60 than your newly priced out competition… and the EFI scientist here at Vivid Racing just can’t let you go out like that.

While we have options for your interior woes, and styling upgrades that make the car look the part of the markup, we were focused on two things and two things only: horsepower and torque… and drivability (I’m aware that’s three things). When this Two-tone Ikazuchi Yellow Tricoat / Super Black Kouki Z34 rolled into our dyno lab, we were impressed. It put down an underrated 405hp and 475ftlbs of torque through the automatic transmission, which was more than we all expected. Immediately wanting to unlock the ECU and start our flash process, the customer let us know the factory warranty was very important to him and that he would like to keep it. Luckily here at VR Tuned, we have developed a Warranty-safe tune with our VR Tuned Tuning Box. Basically, this system acts as a piggy back. It requires no cutting or splicing and does not modify the way any of the factory sensors work. Instead, through science and electrical engineering and magic, it provides safe, modified data to the factory ECU, allowing us modify boost, fuel and spark strategies that ultimately results in a 65hp increase over stock and 85 more ftlbs or torque through our VR Forged wheels.

To make it more user-friendly for the driver, we included optional Bluetooth control for both iOS and Android platforms, allowing the user to quickly change between 7 performance maps, or simply turn the tuning box off for emissions purposes from their phone. With 3 active drive modes (Race, Sport, and Eco) included, and German tuning box construction, we feel Vivid Racing has crafted the ultimate tuning solution for Nissan Z owners looking to retain their factory warranty. We also found the best exhaust system for making big power, and the best suspension system to keep it all under control, so there’s no need to take it one step at a time. The next stop for us and the Z should be a track day, so subscribe if you want to see more.

So whether you want to be the talk of the town at the next local cars and coffee, or you want to take a few hot laps around the track in extreme comfort, shoot me an email at iori@vividracing.com to get your Z right.

Nissan 400Z Nismo (render), 2020. Australian website CarAdvice.com.au and their resident render artist Theophilus Chin have imagined what a high performance version of the new generation Nissan Z might look like. The 400 refers to a possible 400hp produced by version of the Infiniti Q60's 3.0-litre VR30 V6 they speculate could power the car

The Return of Z

June 2009 marked the debut of the sixth generation Nissan Z-car: The 370Z. Since then, it has been updated a number of times, including the introduction of the Nismo trim. The 370Z Nismo features various aerodynamic, interior, power, handling and ECU tuning upgrades. But, despite the time and effort put into the 370Z over the years, it is almost entirely the same car that debuted back in 2009 in terms of design and technology. With it still being sold new in 2020, it no longer feels like the fresh modern sports car it once was due to its dated looking interior and minimally updated exterior.

11 years of production for a single model is a long time. Z fans have been longing for a new model for quite some time now…

Unveiled on September 15, 2020, the new Nissan Z Proto is a preview of the upcoming seventh generation Z-car to replace the aging 370. Finally!

Like Z cars of the past, it will feature a V6 engine, RWD drivetrain, two doors, two seats and a standard 6 speed manual transmission.

Exterior

The most interesting aspect of the Z Proto, rumored to be called 400Z once it reaches production, is the design. Let’s begin with the exterior. The exterior design is heavily inspired by classic Z cars of the past. This mainly includes the original Datsun 240Z from the early to late 70s and the fourth generation 300ZX of the 90s. 

Front

The front fascia is all 240Z inspired. The headlight shape is designed to resemble the 240Z’s entire headlamp assembly, not just the circular headlights themselves, which includes the surrounding tear-drop shaped housing. According to Alfonso Albaisa, Senior vice president of Global Design for Nissan, the two half-circle LED daytime running light arcs are designed to represent the natural reflections of a 240Z headlamp assembly with glass covers specifically. 

The grille is almost identical to that of the classic, with a blunt rectangular shape that visually connects to the headlights through a swooping bumper line that runs underneath the lights. 

Another notable detail is the triangular bulge on the hood, just like on the original.

Personally, I love the front fascia design as is because of its immediate resemblance to the original Z of the 70s in an elegant modern-retro rendition. But it is currently the center of debate and mixed opinion, with the grille being the most talked about aspect. One potential design concern I can see with the current grille shape is that it may be a bit too rectangular considering the flowing lines of the headlights and overall body shape. However, I believe that it is a necessary design element because of its key role in the Proto’s beautifully crafted resemblance to the original 240Z that takes no more than a second to recognize.

Side

Moving to the side-profile, and we see an overall resemblance to the classic sports coupe shape of the 240Z, with a sloped rear, elongated hood, small triangular rear-quarter window, and, my favorite, a rear-quarter panel mounted Z badge. Awesome!

Rear

Now let’s get to the rear. Here we have a resemblance to a different classic Z-car. The 90’s 300ZX. This can be seen in the horizontal double rectangle brake lights, with a black painted area in between. This is exactly the design of the taillights of the 300ZX, but with modern LED technology. We can also see some 300ZX in the bumper design, with a horizontal line underlining the taillight assembly.

A cool detail to note about the rear is the diagonal trunk-mounted Fairlady Z badge, made to the style of the original “Datsun 240Z” badge. “Fairlady” is the name used for Z cars sold in Japan. For example, the 370Z is called Fairlady Z Z34 in Japan (Z34 being the code for the sixth generation Z).

Interior

Transitioning to the interior, and we have a modern, sleek and sporty design. The center gauge cluster is all digital. The main center dashboard is clean with minimal buttons. The steering wheel looks slim and comfortable for the hands. The analog gauges on top of the dashboard are a throwback to the 240Z. The contrast yellow stitching across the dashboard, armrests and seats is a neat color-coded touch to the yellow exterior. And finally, the 6 speed manual transmission and physical e-brake are welcoming features in a world where manual transmissions are becoming rare even among sports cars, and physical e-brakes have almost entirely been replaced with buttons.

While the interior does not share the exterior’s affection for classic Z cars (aside from the analog pod gauges), its design looks well-suited for a modern sports car of the 2020’s.

An interesting detail about the interior is the door handles and side vents. I noticed almost immediately that they are identical to the ones in the 370Z, which itself had the same door handles and side vents as the preceding 350Z of the early 2000’s. This means that there could be more parts in the Z Proto that have been taken directly from the 370Z, potentially to reduce cost of production once it goes on sale. Personally I don’t mind this, considering the otherwise brand new design inside and out.

Conclusion

Overall, the design of the Z Proto has left a strong positive impression. It looks sleek, streamlined and beautifully modern-retro. Current information suggests a 2021 release, which would likely make the 400Z a 2022 model year car, with an estimated base price of $45,000. It will be powered by a 300 hp, 3.0 liter twin turbo V6 from the current Infiniti Q60.

Considering the estimated release date, the Z Proto is likely almost entirely production-ready in terms of design and technology. So despite being a prototype, what we see here today, is likely what we will see next year. Some minor changes are always a possibility though.

Enthusiasts have waited long enough for a new Z-car, and we are nearly there. A new era of Z is coming.

Well, the wait is over. This is the current version of the Nissan Z. Looks A1 to me. Interior is absolutely on point, and the body is clean with lines that flow naturally. For tuner guys and girls they really came through serving up a platform begging to be modified.

So here's the important stuff. It will come equipped with a 400hp Twin Turbo 6 cylinder power plant, and is most definitely coming with a 6 speed manual transmission. Out powering its cousin the Toyota Supra, and being equipped with Nissan's ever faithful v6 engine that begs to be beat on by drifters and drivers alike. Haven't heard about the Nismo or track specs yet, but I'm hoping it will come with the Brembo kit and Nismo suspension that made the z33 and z34 so appealing to true drivers. God knows the Brembos came in clutch when I used to carve around the Utah canyons in the 350z track version.

All in all, from a former Z owner and a Nissan faithful, I couldn't be happier.

400z Nismo prototype

[allcarnews]

NISMO 400z 😱 🔰 ______________________________________ The aging 370z is finally green lighted for a replacement and it’s going to be a monster! Reportedly to be called the 400z! Original rumors said Nissan and Mercedes would collaborate on a new sportscar platform but Nissan has apparently pulled out since MB wants a convertible not a coupe. 🔥The base 400z should by 2020-2021 and pack a TwinTurbo 3.0L V6 making around 400HP and 350lb-ft of torque! A NISMO version is also expected lacking AWD and over 475HP and 450lb-ft of torque! 🔥 Expect the design to take heavy cues from the Nissan GRIPZ concept but we should see a new concept at next years 2019 Tokyo Auto Show! The new Z will share a platform with the infiniti Q60 as it is a good RWD sportscar bass! ________________________________________ EXTRA: This should spice up the segment! 🔥 ________________________________________ - - #Nissan #370z #V6 #GTR #400z #AWD #RWD #infiniti #jdm #q60 #drive #carbon ||#powerful #performance #turbocharged #supercharged #advanced #SupercarsRevamped #Supercar #HyperCar #ItsWhiteNoise #CarLifeStyle #MadWhips #CupGang #Carstagram #BlackList #AmazingCars247 An #allcarnews post
