Assuming it does make it:

- Oooor... are we into hybrid territory, perhaps something rising from the ashes of "Project Black S"?
I'll have to do some Googling - this car hasn't been on my radar. For a while there, it seemed like the chances of a new Z were approaching 0%. I'm glad they are pulling things together, and I agree with some others above who suggest this could really leave the Supra's shortcomings embarrassingly exposed.

I doubt that its going to get more than 400HP considering that the Q50/60 RS has sensors built into the turbos that monitors RPM (which is being monitored by the factory ECU). This also means that the 300HP car will be the one to get for modding. The power figures of the Z33/Z34 have always been aligned with the V35/V36 Skyline that debuted
