Ah no you are wrong LS1's do not make 350WHP stock
Regular LS1's were rated at 305, HP ones were rated at around 310-320.
Ls-1 Hp - LS1 Performance Information
Now with bolt ons it could go higher. Though the same could be said for VQ35DE
I have seen stock with bolt ons V35DE's putting out 285WHP. Ask Juan aka Bardabe he has a 2003 doing that.
Stock for stock flywheel HP is all I am talking about here. The Z32TT only put out 300HP at the flywheel. So again the NA V6 aka VQ35DE in 350Z's was so close to that and the Rev UP matched it and VQ35HR bested it. All were in 350Z's.
Oh and Z33dori, I know he was talking about Nissan should have done it as a factory car.
Below I will show you why its economically unfeasible. As well as why there was no reason for them to do it. LOL
You guys are mixing facts here. I was doing a straight comparison of HP to HP.
The TT was also quite expensive for a Import sports car at 50k in the early 90's.
Were as the price of a 350Z with damn near equivalent HP was almost half the price.
To the OP, look you have a nice car, its a great build.
Just step back and realize that your title statement is bold. Realize that for Nissan to TT a 350 and have the kind of numbers you are doing would have made the car a 50-60k car easily, if not more. It also would have taken out of the class it currently sits in.
That is way to pricey for any Z and one of the reasons that TT's did not sell in Super large numbers.
Oh and this is not an intention to start a debate, its just clarification of facts, that might have been missed.
