[@Slickpete83]

I would like Nismo to focus more on weight reduction on this car

[@papito2you]

Now we're talking...

[@ldawson103]

Smart man!

[@hightech_lowlife]

I agree. But most of the weight is coming from crash readying the thing, and using heavy materials to keep the cost down. And a price hike is the last thing the Nismo can handle

[@monsterous289]

hightechlowlife The BRZ/FRS is able to keep at 2758 lbs, have 4 seats, and still musters a 5-star safety rating. The Z line was never meant to be a lightweight sports car. It was meant to be a muscle car marketed towards the American crowd. That's why it weighs so much. That's why there are so many similarities with american muscle cars. People say Nissan lost their way with the Z line...they didn't.

[@The1stMoRice]

Yeah, no. The Z is not like a muscle car by any sense of the term.

[@BwukImKfc]

This car even gets ass in the middle of nowhere

[@_fameONE]

I don't understand the horsepower argument in America. This car is balanced and that's what matters.

[@OldSkoolUncleChris]

It’s about the $$$, for not much more $$ you get a corvette. Or for less $ you get a normal one of these with a minor decrease in hp

[@daivietnguyen7289]

To my eyes, this Nismo 370Z looked sensational in red indeed...I love to have one right now.

[@spooledyou300]

Talks about how analog the car is, the car rev matches for you...

[@MotoManTV]

[@spooledyou300]

[@creative-for-fun]

i went from sti to 370z, i love both cars

[@gaza.vendetta1947]

You can turn it off if you like.... its analog

[@OAK_MTN]

I can and will be turned off ; )

[@clovisthefirst492]

if you could get a base corvette stingray you would be a complete idiot to choose this. the stingray has better interior, looks better, sounds better, handles better, and let us not forget the stingray is a true sportscar while the Z is more like a grand touring car "spiced up" to be a sports car.

[@BlueHopi144]

totally agree with u ! What they did with the corvette lately is pretty solid , original and delivers pure sportscar sensations ; for a very low price / quality range .

[@Xenios9]

the c7 is the best bang for its buck car out there on the street ATM

[@M1necraft0ranges]

A complete idiot would choose this over a Corvette Stingray if they had the money to buy one. V8 vs V6.

[@hitimebomb]

But at the end of the day its still a piece of shit American built car vs some of Japans cutting edge technology... If you're talking price, get an R34 Skyline and tune it, way faster, rarer, and more appealing than either of these for less money even after tuning and importing.

[@Xenios9]

Hunter mcewan your so dumb dude, american cars are not bad you dont know shit about cars you just say what you hear and dont back it up with facts

[@daviddivad6109]

This guy is particularly adept at reviewing cars. I think he gets into the essence of the car in a certain way that really leaves you able to pick up what he's puttin down. Cheers to great reviews!!

[@penvon]

Don't know how comes motoMan doesn't have more subscribers.He does a great job reviewing those vehicles.

[@bl4d3runn3rX]

I think for that amount of money it costs, it should have at least 400HP. But maybe Nissan don´t want to do it because of the GT-R

[@Lefty1x]

Exactly why, they have to have "extreme" power in the more expensive car cause people want power but in a Z if that makes sense

[@supercooled]

Roosevelt Woodruff didn't make sense.

[@bl4d3runn3rX]

But if we are honest, 350hp is not that bad. I think the Nismo will make a lot of fun.

[@s2korpionic]

Oldschool Gamer Rick No. They don't want to do it because of engine longevity.

[@xmusic1331]

350 is just fine, people tend to only look at HP. Pay attention to the center of gravity and curb weight

[@arch417powersports]

400hp would be a good point to stop at. This car needs a considerable amount of power over it's base model because it is a special edition.

[@willliam1343]

Digital Broccoli. Yip and then they eat gtrs

[@ZHGAmingAllTheWay]

Digital Broccoli 700 has been done before stock block

[@coopsnz1]

it will cost more than 50k with 400hp

[@chrismccullough5107]

Always thought the nismo had more HP over the normal...

[@PR1NCETD0T]

Chris Mccullough Nismo has suspension, seats, syncro rev, wheels + tires, and body kit over the base Z, but you can easily mod the base to be better for less than 20k the price the Nismo has over the base.

[@tikijojo]

These are starting to creep into the high 20K's used. These become more enticing at that price.

[@teversole]

I picked up this exact 370z NISMO a few weeks ago. I traded in my 2009 Touring w/ Sports for it. Its night and day difference between the two. I am completely satisfied with the car and I do agree about the HP but how much do you really need? Its not about just HP but how the car performs. Ive driven a lot of cars and nothing drives like my NISMO. Great review though.

[@MotoManTV]

Tony Eversole Congrats on the new ride . . .

[@AndyZULUL]

i... Dont own any cars ....

[@Jazz-331]

Tony Eversole just curious if u still have the car and if so are you still enjoying it as much?

[@GarrettGiuffre]

Honestly, if the the 370Z had 370 Chp. That would be perfect. The Z, just like the concept of the BRZ and soon to be gone FRS. Its a drivers car, which done correctly does not need 800HP. Although, for the price of the 370Z, the suspension and brake capabilities. I think this car deserves at least 370 crank horsepower. I think the current braking and chassis would feel at home with 370 Hp, and would just make this car performs flawlessly .

[@DoctaM3]

[@josephcassiba263]

Analog is a great way to describe the driving experience, and as a driving enthusiast, I love that. As for power, I think it is well matched to the chassis. I would just like some more character, like Honda VTEC or Toyota VVT that gives you a surge at higher RPM. I have owned several sports cars over the last 6 years, but keep test driving a 370z Nismo, because it just fun and engaging. I have been tempted to buy one, but I never pull the trigger, because they are too expensive for what they are and it isn't necessarily special at any one thing. If they depreciate enough, I may get one. Maybe after the 400z comes out, they will drop.

[@C.Strife1320]

Yup! I just drove a 2016 Nismo Z Tech Pack today and I was amazed by it! I really liked it! But..... it needed a turbocharged motor. Nissan has got to bring that back to the Z. That is literally my only issue with it. I absolutely love everything else about the car! Yes...even the clutch (which took almost 10 minutes to get used to lol) Give it a Twin Turbo set up with 450-500hp and you will have folks lining up to buy this car!

[@c05l24]

Hmm.2015 Altima 3.5l Sr 0-60 is 5.9 seconds and it can't handle for anything. 2015 Nismo Z 0-60 is 4.9 seconds (7AMT) and handles like a dream...common MotoMan lets get real here.....a full second is huge . Other then that I do enjoy most of your reviews lol. Keep up the great work but lets be more fair with the Z.

[@StraitClownin909]

Totally agree. This is still a fast and good looking car.

[@MagnumOpos]

Either get a manual in this car or buy a fucking Accord. It's like those who get GT mustangs with a auto wtf??

[@c05l24]

The manual is more engaging for sure, but the auto is faster and for those that can't or won't drive a manual it is a great option to have.

[@Allmotorzl1]

The 7AT is faster on this car. Only reason to go manual on this car is for more fun and if you're going to boost it. Stop worshiping manual i despise people like you.

[@MagnumOpos]

Worship? Fuck no. My daily is an auto and I don't mind it. If I were to splurge on a car like this, DCT or stick.

[@DrHistoryV]

I think this car is stuck in 2003, Nissan wake up and add some real power to this car, at least show some love like you do to the GTR. The 370z started with 332hp, it should be closer to 400 if we follow what they've done to the GTR. In Nissans defense, its harder to squeeze out power from an already squeezed engine. (this engine is nothing more than a bored out 3.5 HR engine from 2007) I really hope that the new 3.0TT they are planning to use in the new q60 will trickle down to the new Z. This is the spark that the Z was missing all along, make it a sub 40k car with around 400hp under 3300lbs and you have a winner.

[@jarederhardt]

Hey Moto Man I completely agree. I am a 48 year old fella that just bought an Infiniti G37x because it is a practical family sedan with Gobs of power. Yes I love my car and I bought it largely because of the power. But when I look at this new Nismo I don't see any big deal because it only has 20 hp more than my family sedan and I can put 3 more people in my car if I so desire. So yes I do agree with you.........GIVE IT MORE POWER......... CONVINCE ME !!!!!!!!

[@swanblake]

Coming from a past owner of 2 new 350z, The z needs to be cheaper. It either needs 400hp for that price tag with 400ft lb torque or keep that engine and drop the price. They priced it as an entry level Porsche and that is not appealing to those buyers. This should be in the 28-30k price range with the sports package (not talking nismo). Right now it's an overpriced, plastic interior dinosaur. Kind of a shame how high they raised the price on this.

[@skywalk3x]

What Porsche are you talking about? No Porsche starts under $50K and if you've ever priced a Porsche with options even the Boxster is well over $100K and thats a bare bones Porsche. And all these people talking about the interior has got to stop, Plastic Dinosaur come on dude Go to a dealership and sit in a Z it looks way better than you are saying. Not quality wise but in the looks department it kills the boring Porsches. All the Z needs is a diet, it weighs in a 3278lbs if they can cut 200lbs of the Z with the same HP it would be low $'s 0-60 and high 12's in the Qrt. It has been quoted for months a key in the new Z is a weight reduction, Turbo 4cylinder is even being considered along a turbo in the V6 which would certainly put it at 400hp

[@sincewhenarehandlesathing]

Boxster is less than a 100k.

[@05shamilREGION]

I LOVE NISSAN!!! I LOVE JAPANESE CARS!!!

[@acorea44]

Great review! I absolutely and most certainly think it needs more power! Even something along the lines of 400+ should be easily attainable and bring it more in line with what a car like this should be. That moto man brings up a Corvette and my immediate thought is not a chance for the Z. The vette offers more in every possible way. Which is the point. I should feel that way about the Z. Times have moved forward. Yet Nissan is investing more focus on selling image instead of product value. Yes it's a Z but ford makes a focus that has nearly the same amount of torque. A clear sign of how the performance buyer is spending there money. They simply cannot provide an enticing argument with the Z in its current state. People are paying attention to how much "bang for there buck" they are getting. Horse power being a major part. Nissan needs to step there game up. But I digress.

[@randomthoughts9463]

Got 2017 370Z Nismo - added a Stillen Gen 3 ultra-long and AAM resonated test - tubes running 94 octane. Still searching for 400 engine hp....not likely - but a really nice ride...

[@kamaleago8856]

I love the z models. I own one myself. I believe that the Z is and will always be about balance between weight and power. I plan to get a NISMO model later. For now, I think settling with a Z sports model and adding a catback, stillen intakes and long pipes would be cherry until then.

[@TiberiumPie]

First time I have seen a video of yours. Great job; the passion about the Z cars, great insight with spot on analysis. I am a diehard Nissan fan and the 370Z has been long in the tooth for a while. I thought Nissan would have bumped up the power in the 2013+ models (first 370z refresh) just like they did at the end of the 350Zs life cycle (2007-2008 model years) but no such luck. I think it would of added some much need enthusiasm and press coverage back into this sports car that has been overshadowed the last few years. Furthermore, this should be (fingers crossed) the last year of the 370Z before a new Z is introduced at the end of this year. I am very interested to see what direction Nissan goes in

[@MotoManTV]

Thanks . . . and welcome to the show!

[@RESET1776]

I'm CRAZY for my currant 240Z & have had most generations of the Z in the past. IMO Nissan lost their way with the Z car once again. The simple formula of producing an AFFORDABLE sports car is what put the Z on the map. Only now it's in the league of being a dream car for most. Come on Nissan! Pull the lesson from yourself in the 240Z & Mazda with the 1st gen Miata. Build us an AFFORDABLE bare bone sports car & it will have a standing waiting list at the dealerships.

[@swanblake]

Couldn't agree more

[@350Zquicksilver]

agreed, if they were going to play in the big boy arena, then go BIG, 425-450hp with a SC creating a conservative boost, all OEM. we have a tuner in our area doing the following, cost, not sure, but it's not extravagant either. 2009 370z -671rwhp @ 12psi - E85, 100% Stock Engine - 61,000 miles YES, that's 671rwhp!

[@TWHISPERER]

Except Hyundai has done that with the Genesis having 348hp and being around $25k and it's only a decent seller. Are you talking about being even more economical and lets say $20k? The HP wouldn't be enough at that point - ala the S2000 which itself is only a decent seller because of only having 238 hp. Supposedly, there are two models of Z coming out. One with a Mercedes 4 cylinder that will be the cheaper version and still be quick and one with a turbo V6...maybe the 4 cylinder will be more to what you're talking about.

[@swanblake]

John Vu Well I agree with your comment as after my 2006 350z I bought a 2013 Genesis coupe v6 rspec. I love it and think that is how the z should be priced if it keeps this engine status quo. I thank Hyundai as they allowed me to have a rear wheel drive car with some hp and stay under 30k.

[@TWHISPERER]

Blake Swan So, how are liking it? It's criticized by a few for being a bit slow at shifting but most of these reviews give it a lot of praise.

[@andyrivero8047]

I had a 2004 Nissan 350z, 11 years ago around 300hp was good for the Nissan z or any other regular sport car. Now anything less than 400 is not worth it.

[@snipesome]

I think the z's are a good balance of power . They are driving cars and do just that very well. Some issues that I have found with cars like the viper is that when you are driving there is too much power. You can't pull away from a red light without looking crazy and that car really is crazy, suicidal too. The z has power and can move much faster than other cars, but without going crazy. I think the only thing that could be added to a z would be an oem single turbo. But at its current state, another great thing about z's is the fact that it's a sports car that will take you to 200k miles. So by adding a turbo you ruin that reliability I suppose.

[@seb5945]

I think 350 hp is enough for the road.

[@Exotic_Flash]

370z nismo should have a min of 400whp and 370tq

[@Oldandsickofit]

If Nissan puts more power under the hood of the 370Z then Nissan would find that the 370Z will be competing with the GTR. So leave the Z alone and get a GTR or put a 250 shot of NOS on the 370Z.

[@flexican77]

nah...the gtr is getting ridiculous... the only thing i see with not improving the z is the nomenclature... 300zx 3.0... 350z 3.5... 370z... 3.7. i can see them going with a newer 3.0 and TT it to be around an m3/m4 range and not be near the GTR.... but I don't know if it'd be a newer gen Z at that point

[@jybtqm]

i have to say that i hated this new design when it first came out, but now its growing on me i really like it. i hope I could buy a Nismo Soon.

[@IMWEZL2]

I own a 2009 370Z Sport Touring model and recently sat in a 15 Nismo Z while at a car show. I can say the seating feels a whole lot better and the doors have a more solid feel to them...LOL!

[@MrGovenator1]

Its mixed for me in the power department. I would typically think yes, thats quite enough power, especially to just have fun it. Than you think, wow, a base Z can nearly keep up in a straight line. Doesn't matter though, love the new front end on this car. All ways liked the Zs no matter what trim.

[@VaunShiz]

You are commenting about power with a genesis coupe in your picture ? Those are 3500lbs with 300hp.. sorry a v6 mustang is faster

[@MrGovenator1]

matthew von Yeah, but if I wanted a mustang I would have grown a vagina and got one... No, but seriously, I just didn't want a car every one has. And the Genesis coupe offers a good performance deal on the used market. And in my opinion the reason the V6 mustang is faster is because the shit transmission in the Genesis. Probably the biggest issue I have about the car from factory. I have had other issues with mine, mainly the steering. Thats why I can't wait to get rid of it.

[@djjones2723]

You buy this z your getting ripped off for sure

[@MrTimstaaa]

It should have at least 420 to 450 horses.

[@Tain950]

I owned the 350z and absolutely loved that car it was just so much different than most cars on the road. Unfortunately Nissan isn't supplying the customer with the proper amount of Horse Power for the price tag. They should come out with a 500 HP V6 twin turbo Z to step there game up.

[@Tain950]

[@350Zquicksilver]

I really like the 2015 NISMO 370 in red, the color helps hide the tail lights, lol. First thing I would do, send it off to a guy in my area that has done the following to his 370, if I were so lucky he would even take the job. 2009 370z -671rwhp @ 12psi - E85, 100% Stock Engine - 61,000 miles YES, that's 671rwhp!. I like the new Vette, it's a superior car from the factory, but I'm already seeing too many of them, lol! To see one of these 2015 Nismo's, good luck!

[@Jia1337]

Well, probably for the 3rd generation, they can update the engine by giving it 400bhp on base and 450bhp on Nismo. Also, an update on the interior is probably going to happen and blow everyone's mind because look at the Maxima.

As much horsepower as they can get without forced induction.

[@whiteandnerdytuba]

wow. not even close. fords base 3.6 can get over 350 in a heartbeat, i think nissan could figure it out too, they are just cheap and lazy

[@lightbulbisbright]

whiteandnerdytuba cheap and lazy are not the reason... 350 from NA V6 is pretty respectable. Porsche gets less than that from flat-6

[@whiteandnerdytuba]

Sarin Murlidar porsche isnt about power. but when you go from the base porsche to the big boys you get 600hp+. this costs similar to a corvette, you cant be in the same price point if you are not in the same league.

[@nickL7389]

Sarin Murlidar Porsche has several 6 cylinder configurations over 350hp... GT3 for example is 475hp.

[@lightbulbisbright]

nickL7389 I was trying to compare in a similar price range. the cayman was as close as I could get.

[@PACKyourSHITfolks420]

I like that it doesn't have huge power. They're not in a competition with this car. They're making a great sports car without getting hung up on numbers and what everyone else is doing. Similar in a way to the mx5. Nissan cars generally have a character that the owners love regardless of numbers.

[@IceDree]

And a Frickin CVT Altima at that! I agree, it looks much better than the older Nismos, not a fan of the red stripes though, makes it look ricey. I'd say 380hp sounds about right. For that kind of money though (I read estimated 45k), my flawed logic kicks in & says a 2015 Dodge Challenger 392 (40k for Scat Pack, 46k for SRT) ... Klaus did one helluva job with the new interior! i know i know, it doesn't handle half as well as the Lotus, probably weighs twice as much too ... i blame Chris Bangle, his 7-series poisoned me with all kinds of ideas lol. I agree regarding the Skyline ... hell even De Nysschen agrees, but that's a story for another day ... As always, excellent video M.

[@Dajen_Tk]

Needs at least 450bhp

According to Car and Driver, a v6 Altima with 270hp from 2015 had an MSRP of $30,865; whereas the Nismo Z of the same year is listed as $30,825... Just saying.

[@TheDefensivemaniac]

Who the fuck let the accountants in at Nissan? They need to focus on getting more N/A power out of there V6 for the z..They got it right for the GTR but now its the Z's turn....bigger cams..individual throttle bodies..high compression pistons..etc..they can do it..

[@Medicinal]

preach

[@feelthatfeelthat]

This is one of the most powerful NA six in the world. Direct injection might net them a 10 percent increase but that's about it. Anyhow the next model will be twin turbo

[@TheDefensivemaniac]

+thatfeel currently it probbaly is...but BMW's S54 engine that came in there E46 M3 still holds its place of being the best liter/hp ratio six cylinder ever made...it was a 3.2 liter making around 350 to the crank....nissan had the engine combo right for their 350 and 370z's...but they just need a little more "oomf"..like i said...individual throttle bodies will make a hell of a difference if nissan added them..but this engine is gonna be dumped soon and they might be twin turbo'd..but its not confirmed yet tho

I have a 2018 370Z NISMO tech and it's a automatic and I love it when trade it for nothing the best little sports car love your video

[@azizalimf]

i think it would be easy to make it 400 hp and make the nismo 500hp . . . that's not hard but it will put it in a higher price

[@goodfella69]

If they were to make it to 500hp, there wouldn't be much justification for the GT-R.

[@azizalimf]

+Sebastian F. they could makr the gtr 700+ .. i mean look at those chevy corvette and the mustang shelpy ...

[@goodfella69]

+i QTiFy a bit far fetched for a v6... Also, more HP doesn't always make the car faster, as double hp from a veyron doesn't make it twice as fast and definitely doesn't increase its 0-100 times. I think Americans have failed to grasp the idea more horsepower isn't the answer.

[@azizalimf]

+Sebastian F. by adding more power i dont mean making the engine alot bigger .. maybe for thr gtr they make it 4.0Liter and bigger turbos and maybe the nismo Z they put turbos

[@azizalimf]

+Sebastian F. +Sebastian F. just a second though about what i said "or maybe make the z like how it is because It's fun but louder exhaust and the nismo is 400hp and turbos and for the gtr i think 700+ will be easy right? that's for the nismo of course 700+ NISMO GTR

Your complaint on the clutch could be the "helper spring" in the pedal. A lot of complaints about it! It takes like 5 minutes to remove and you can feel the clutch MUCH better.

Looks great in this red color - def like the styling updates on the NISMO and the Recaros look awesome

[@adaptiveagile]

I agree. The car is pretty, handles well and has “adequate” power.... but that’s not enough. I’d say supercharge the engine and you’ll have plenty of power and an exotic sound that will give the car more character.

[@lominero5]

I think it is really about perspective. You are right that it is a mindset, because 350 is not a small amount at all. Then again a turbo doesn't hurt lol

[@iArkayne]

Problem with Nissan performance vehicles is that, if they gave the 370z more power, and got it to be something alongside the Lotus / Audi R8, then why would you buy the GT-R over the 370z? They keep them substantially apart because (australian prices here) comparing a $60k AUD car to a $170AUD car, you'd obviously expect much more power from something that cost 3x as much. If they opt the 370 to make more power, enough to bring it's 0-100km/h times to sub 4 seconds and 1/4mile to

[@shanelefever7704]

Well this is a tuner car you add the power and I have driven a 350z and thought wow this is enough power to put a smile on your face and go sideways and they both look great

[@DougDianeMarbourg]

I own a 2011 Nismo with bolt on mods (exhaust, intake). Sure I could use a little more HP in straight line situations, but honestly for tight canyon driving, 100+ more HP wouldn't be as much fun. Heck, even naturally aspirated the car is at the ragged edge of hooking up consistently through 120deg turns. Yea, I could keep traction control on, but that takes away from the fun factor. More isn't always better.

[@ssjMaximum22Goku]

Great review. A good number for horsepower for the Nismo Z would probably be at least 400hp. Even 460hp would be nice to compare it with other sportscars that have a V8. Probably sticking a turbo in the Nismo is all it takes. Get on it Nissan!

[@sergiocavazos9744]

Nice video! very good quality, shots, explanation, and attitude! Subscribed! (just keep it low with the hands movement, it's very distracting)

[@bradnaylor]

More power for sure... You made a very good point when you said, you could get an Altima with 300 horsepower, why not have the regular Z's with 370-375+ HP and the Nismo with 400+?

[@coopsnz1]

Because it will cost more money . you want the car to cost more a base one

[@BroVCam]

Great review, good info. I'm a Z guy, I'm on my 4th, currently an 88 N/A manual; fun cars. I totally agree with you on the current Z NISMO. I just don't understand why this car didn't come stock with at least 400-450 hp. Nissan could have easily pulled 50-75 more horses outta the VQ37 for the same price. Would really make Z lovers proud when pully along side a Vette, instead of hoping the guy doesn't goose his engine. And I believe Z lovers would have been satisfied with 400-450 hp. And who wants to blow your warranty when spending that kind of money on modding. Oh well, we can dream. Maybe your buddy Randy or the next Z designer will read this post and give us want we want on the next go round....

[@niceprince]

I love Z's and I'll be getting one or an FRS really soon. The issue with the Z is that for enthusiasts, buying the base model with sport package is the better deal. You save 15k easily and you will be able to build a better car with aftermarket parts. It's a great car but for the cost it doesn't have enough power. It could be an issue with the VQ37 being somewhat old now and perhaps they can get no more power from it. 400hp even if it was a Nismo parts department addon should have been available.

[@Cypherus21]

I was in the same boat as you and decided on waiting for the FRS refresh in 2016, which will allegedly have a 295 hp turbo from a 2.0 litre boxer engine. Apparently the order came from Toyota executives up top to give the car more power. So you would have a the light weight balance of an FRS plus enough hp for daily fun use. The 370Z is an older car now and hasn't changed much since 2009. It drives like a tank and from what others told me, is not comfortable as your daily driver as you feel every bump in the road. Plus the high level torque and RPM to squeeze out that extra hp, will never be engaged in the city or highway unless you race the engine. Not really practical.

[@niceprince]

I won't be buying new either way but if it's true that its getting a turbo engine It'll be interesting to see what happens to the price (and if this makes Nissan bring out the s16) Maybe I should wait too because I am a Nissan fanboy first and foremost. About it driving like a tank I'd have to disagree with. It's definitely not a light car and the steering is kind of heavy but it depends on what you compare it too. Compared to a Mustang or Camaro it's light as a feather lol... The 86 though I'm almost positive I wouldnt be happy with 200hp as I live in the southern part of the U.S atm where the roads are straight and horsepower is king.. 95% of my driving will be on straight, open highways. I'd rather not be outrun by minivans.. a turbo is mandatory for an 86 for me.

[@Cypherus21]

niceprince Roger that. A turbo would be perfect for your needs and save you gas money compared to a drunk V6 or V8

[@flexican77]

just go base model z, upgrade brakes, LSD, tires, and some suspension, then go tt or SC... I don't see how that can be so bad. when you start to compare forced induction to NA, things get very skewed, very fast. Remember, its putting the power to the wheels. I'm happy to be a part of a Z family, in a world where i've been seeing about 1-2 Z's to 5-6 toyobaru's. Overall, the Z is just a beastly car that can still do wonders and handle ridiculously...Nissan is doing it right..next men's may go direct injection.. and lower it to a 3.0 turbo again... I'd say it'd be at the newer m3/m4 range an a new force to be reckoned with...then with a tune similar to the JB4... good god... WHY NOT NISSAN?

[@skywalk3x]

Also faster isn't always better. The Z06 Vette on paper is supposed to beat the Nismo GTR, but on the track with a pro driver in Randy Probst the GTR wins

[@iljin해결책]

While I love the new Nismo Z car in terms of looks like RESET1776 stated, the price is way out of range for many people and at its current price point you can't help but start looking around at other cars in the same price range.

i remember in HS back between 91-94 i had the 1984-50th Anniv. Turbo ZX the 2-tone TT and that car would ponk 5.0's GT or LS, but mostly i miss how u could pull parking brake and in 1st gear sit the ASS whomp down, up,down that car was one fun ride, man oh man

[@bobmarleyswar]

Had a 280z in 1982. I like the Nissan but my choices at the time was Z28 Camaro(did it bad choice), Z280z(did loved it), Porsche 944. If i did what I know now in todays mode of cast aways..I would go for the 911 new with 50/50 engine transmission split. Yeah Porsche is the best any Porsche. In fact you have convinced me if Nissan does not come up with a body change that is stunning futuristic, like Honda NSX/i8/La Ferrari type they are going to get no sales like the mid 80's to late 90's. Sorry Nissan pull up you socks and so something great, be great. Like you use to be. :)

[@xPad1x]

I agree that Z's should have more power, totally agree actually. The Z definitely looks a lot faster than it is. Don't get me wrong I love Z's and have loved them all my life. Look at it this way though, a new 2015 Nismo 370Z Tech will cost around $50,000 after taxes. You know what else you could get for around $50,000? A first gen R35 GT-R. Granted the GT-R would have around 70,000 miles at that price, I would still rather have the GT-R. I'll probably get crap for that but it's just personal preference.

Love it... Ever since I was a kid and I was driven around in my grandads' Nissan 300ZX, I love Nissan and I love the Z's. And just like how I wanted that 300ZX (I have a Celica now) I want this Nismo. As for power... I think 400 would be a perfect number but 350 is A-OK in my books. As for anything else... Nope... Nothig.

[@rod3134]

I had a 350z and now I own a 370Z 40th Anniversary edition. The 370 is definitely a better car than the 350. The increase in power is excellent. I personally want more power. Around 500 plus HP would cap it for me. If Nissan ever gets to that power range my next car will be a Z. I am highly considering a Stingray Vette due to the power.

I'm a fan of Nissan, my first car was a z32 Fairlady but it still frustrates me to this day that Nismo can't just throw a couple of turbos or a supercharger into this car. New front end looks gorgeous though, the 370z is one of the best looking cars you can buy right now. Just wished Nissan could've taken this car a little further over its long production period.

[@mrlee3527]

In 2008 I bought a 2008 nismo new an was $41,000. I am amazed that the 2016 has the same old tired engine. I would want at least 415 horsepower in it to make me want another one,and change design of rear end!

[@GordanRak]

Unfortunately you're right that in this day and age all people want is power, and currently this engine platform can sustain over 600whp on stock transmission and stock engine internals. Not many other cars for 30k can do that. Truth be told 350 is a lot of power in this size of car. I have a base sport and I can tell you that on the track/autocross it is a blast! It has almost too much power in certain scenarios... However, if you're really that amazing of a driver they do have supercharger, single turbo, and twin turbo kits for this car... 8 to 10k more in cost gets you z06 and up performance numbers

[@Spawn2050]

Not a bad review. I agree with you on the fact that the Z Nismo is so under powered in this day and age. Most of it's competitors out there come out with 400 bhp or more. Some less expensive models have power that rival, exceed or is just a little under what the top of the line Z can produce. Like the Subaru (Impreza) WRX STi, the body panels/lines, suspension, chassis and other visually appealing aspects of the Z Nismo are not the issue; because those parts actually get revised and modernized, for the most part. The motor and transmission remain unchanged and are basically outdated at this point.

[@Acc0rd79]

I own an '09 touring/sport/nav and I can tell you, I am not a fan of the new Nismo front end. I too think its time for a whole new Z to be on the market as its starting to get long in the tooth! I hope by '16 we get a new design, even if its midway through '16. Time for a new Z all together!

[@ckrampertracing]

More than peak power, they should fix three things. A) Add low end power (hate having to wait till I get to 4500rpms to feel anything). Stock supercharger maybe? My VW GTI could beat my Z in any gear if rpms were limited to 4k, easily. 2) Lighten car dramatically, 2700lb target. D) Fix the clutch it's horrible. Shoot for S2000 feel. 4) Delete the base model and touring -- focus on having a great sports car (This isn't a mustang).

[@MichaelPapas]

Hello, Congratulations on your work! I am a NISSAN / Nismo enthusiast and a previous owner of a Japanese-spec Nissan Silvia S15 with the turbo SR20DET engine. Since Nissan and Renault joined, the sports models of the gold 1990s lost their character. NISSAN should consider bringing back the real character of the 300ZX with a V6 Twin Turbo (derivation of the VR30DETT the same bad,wide/low supercar-like design, RWD, new electronics and transmissions, LEDs, GT-R technology and continue the legacy of the 300ZX in a more GT orientation rather than a sports car. Same applies for a new Silvia S16 with 4-cylinder engines, RWD, GT-R design elements. Nismo versions and parts should follow. Global models will lower the cost of such projects that were previously strictly Japanese domestic. The success of the GT-R is the best indication for the success of such projects. Mike

[@Schlock3000]

Love your Al Pacino parody in the final 2 minutes.

[@Scorpio1075]

I drove one of these while looking for a sports car... and there just seems to be a lot of little things holding this car back. 1. While I like the new styling a LOT better, it still is a bit "boy racer". Just clean up a few more lines and I think it goes from boy racer to sexy. 2. Interior has some really odd choices of design and materials. Once again, "boy racer", not sexy. 3. Power... not that 350 hp isn't enough for most people, but the engine doesn't feel refined which make the engine feel unwilling to deliver it's power. 4. Road noise... lots and lots and lots of road noise. It's so load I actually questioned if I'd want to drive it all the time. Keys to greatness: Oh so slightly clean up the exterior and interior, less gimmicky more classy. Provide better noise dampening in the wheel wells and most likely a different tire. Update the engine internals to be more rev happy, or ask Ford to source the V8 engine from of the outgoing Boss 302(not going to happen, but sounds like a winning idea).
