Not really, the GT4 Z will not have any more relation to the new Z than the JGTC GT500 350Z had to my SCCA T1-3 spec racecar. Track setups are different for grassroots efforts than for a quarter million dollar factory racecar. Even the motor for the GT4 car will likely be restricted per FIA BOP...

The GT4 series is for FIA-spec racecars. It won't have much to do with the street car outside of general appearance.

While I've driven or raced a variety of lower-powered cars on racetracks around the country, the Z always had an advantage with power off the turns (assuming equal tires) and top end at the end of a straightaway. It's why the SCCA comp board has saddled the 350/370Z with restrictors and weight...

Nice renderings!

The BRZ will handle better due to the low mounted boxer four engine. But that motor also lacks the torque and HP that the 370Z has with the VQ37VHR. Despite that, the 370Z (and the 350Z) is a much faster car on a twisty road race track.

I'm a SCCA racer and unfortunately have to repair and prep my Z for the Last Chance Majors race at HPR this week. So, no, I won't be going...

It's not free and you must register online to attend.

Put me down as a fan for redline (solid red), or perhaps another metallic red shade.

It's been six months since I had my second Moderna innoculation. No side effects or other negative issues for either my wife or myself. What concerns me are the high number of Americans who are still undecided. There's plenty of vaccine available, but iunvaccinated folks not only leave...

One quality that's usually ignored in any discussion of carbon-ceramic brakes is the high operating temps needed for optimum performance. You'll only get that at the racetrack, and Nissan engineers would be aware of that quality. It's an expensive option that wouldn't make ANY sense for a...

We can only hope!

Reminds me of the spy shots before the 350Z was released back in '02.

Nissan has continuously developed the six-speed tranny in past Zs, and there's no reason to think they won't continue that practice with the VR30DDTT. But don't count on an entirely different design or feel than the current Z34 tranny. It remains one of the best manual trannys on the market.

Interesting news, and if the base Z35 can really be purchased at $35K, it'll be a revelation!

As a Colorado Z owner, I wonder where these photos were taken. I'll keep my eyes open, but this camo Z35 is most likely being tested outside the Denver metro area. As for the large radiator opening in the front bumper, one practical item no one has mentioned is having a central bar simply to...

Actually, Nissan has given us clues, but you have to know where to look. The company just released details on the new Pathfinder SUV and Frontier pickup. Both will be available later this fall, which means the Z35 won't be given the spotlight until at least that point. Even if the early...

Good look at the details, but for the fact that the Z Proto is mostly hand-built parts that may, or may not, make it into production. Styling cue discussion is more interesting, as many of those appear to be set (side accent lines, rear diffuser, etc). This was worth watching just for the...
