Anyone know what the difference is with this motor?

Scroll to the bottom. More details will probably be released with the 07 Z change update, but I'm curious to know what this new VQ is. A search brings up a bunch of sites in a foreign language so any insight would be wonderful.

hrmm..."performance enhancements including a new VQ35HR engine"

sounds good.

Might have stronger parts to take more boost?

I found some speculative info. This is apparently the same motor going into the G35 Sedan. 300 plus HP, smoother and stronger. They point out the 07 G35 sedan's 7500 RPM redline. I'd venture to guess an even broader torque curve. I'd love it if the motor is smoother as they say it will be as well.

I almost traded my Z in on a new Titan last month.

I think I'm just going to keep this car(04 350z0. I'm kinda "in Love" with it and its almost paid off.

there are Great things to come from Nissan.
