about the 80 lbs of torque i severerily doubt that too......its seems way too low.....also how can anyone know this when the power numbers are always kept secret.....


i dont wanna sound all analytical, but the 300z was the fairlady. technicality i know, but just to keep terms right.



i know what you mean about the secret numbers....i wonder myself. but i do believe that to be possible cause i looked up F1 engines and found technology specificallly designed to limit the torque in the engine, especially in turns, because of the car having so much horsepower. so its good to have 1000 horsepower and 80 ft lbs of tourque, with an 18k redline. it actually makes the perfect engine because you have life-stopping speed and utter control.
