Why on earth you would be happy to have the QR under the hood of your car, I will never know. VQ30 or bust.

heh, yeah, Another mule thing… It’s an easy bet that the lines will be revolutionary - not evolutionary. Would be happy if Nissan ever decided to bring the S15 to North America (even if people call it an an Old car)… With some hardware updates… And that is prolly never going to happen.

Once upon a time, there was a 2 door coupe that had a truck engine in it. Wait a minute. Why on earth would someone buy such a Car?

Fast forwarding to today…

That truck engine argument is lame. The SR20 also came in trucks and light duty stuff. KA is dependable. QR’s burst into flames.

Lame or not, it served a point.

Why don’t you make a point - and explain why you would not reccomend the QR? (“Burst into flames”???). Yes, I am a stupid POS like that.

Hey 93\_240sex,

Thanks for the info. I did not know all of that about the QR… So yeah, a VQ’d 300SX does sound nicer.

And it’ll happen because? How would it make sense for Nissan to make a lighter car with the same power as the Z? They’d kill their Z sales. Nobody would buy one. Think back to the S13&S14 vs Z32, we got 4 bangers, they got big V6 motors with a pair o’ turbos.

True. So maybe the VQ25 (from the cefiro)?
