Which do you prefer, the one on top or the one on the bottom? I like the one on the bottom even though I screwed up the taillight.  What do you guys think?

dave2u · 10-13-2001, 03:23 PM

I like the top one. Bottom ones nice but too small. Top ones got a bit more beef about it.

Looks like a big CRX IMHO.  I like the first one better...it's sleeker.

If you want to change something on the new Z, change the front grill or the shape of headlights (try to put 300zx headlights on it <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> ) The lines of the car look fine. No need to make it look like a CRX.

Nismo14 nobody knows, the info you said sounds like the info from a british website that said those figures. I would'nt count on those figures. A TT version would make alot more then 335 HP. The probable HP estimate is one version of the engine that makes 280 to 300 HP, and maybe a direct injection model that makes alittle more horse power after a year or two. Of course they could surprise everyone with a TT, the last 300zx was't expected to be a TT, but they don't want the new Z to get to expensive.

i saw in a mag that the production version in Brit was gonna be 335 hp tt and 289 na, and 197 on a 3.0, and the old tt went frm 222 na to only 300 thats not a big increase either

10-13-2001, 05:48 PM

oh i like being on  the top let the lady relax and i'll do all the work  :biggrin: uh.... yah the top car uh huh :o

BlankFlip · 10-13-2001, 06:04 PM

nice job, but i like the top version better, just "flows" better <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

The 3.0L 300zx's TT version has a 78 HP increase, but the 3.5L 350z gets TT's and only gains 46 HP ?  I'm just saying it sounds like more spam info about the 350z. Besides the fact that it go's against everything Nissan has said and all major magazines.

misnomer · 10-13-2001, 09:15 PM

top, the bottom looks a little too. . . what's the world for it. . . "Ford Focus"

I gotta agree whith what whomever said about the grille. Smoth and round car with a #### black rectangular grille, ugly!!!

240sxtreme · 10-14-2001, 02:18 PM

I thought this was gonna be an entirely different question!  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>   top, all the way...the bottom's taillights are in the wrong place....I' mean, above the wheel???

personally, I think they need to redo the taillights completely.

Tuck&Poke · 10-14-2001, 02:34 PM

335!!uh no.  it more like 250 i know it could make more but theyre trying to keep the price down so its affordable (well relativley affordable.  sorry guys i expected more too.

Uh no!!!  the maxima makes 255 HP out of it's VQ35DE, the Z won't have less HP then the Maxima. The exact quote from the nissan site is "3.5-liter 24-valve DOHC V6 engine rated at 260-plus horsepower" Notice the plus, "rumors" have the HP number more around the 280-300 HP mark. But nobody knows til Nissan tells us.

Chokudori · 10-14-2001, 04:28 PM

Definitly the top

Zexel · 10-14-2001, 04:41 PM

vancouvers14 · 10-15-2001, 11:30 AM

TRM02 · 10-15-2001, 02:02 PM
