Gt-r

First of all, the chassis designations seem to go together with the engine designations, at least throughout the last decade. The R32-34 came with the RB-engine series, while the new V35 comes with the VQ-engine series. The S13 -15 Silvias had the SR-engine series. So, there seems to be a logic behind this, doesn't it!?

Secondly, the first Z-Concept (I think it is from 1999) was very different in design from the final car. The front featured different headlights, and the rear was more bulbous - Porsche 928 style. The interior looked quiet different, as well.
The GT-R is a clue, of what the furture car might look like. Basically, just like the Z-Car, the concept (4-seats, front engine, AWD etc.) will stay the same, but the look might (and I stress that might) look very different. According to the designer, this is still a concept, so lots of things can and might change. At this point in time, they hadn't even made a decision about the engine.
