O Nissan Z served as a starting point for the new concept car brand in the United States of America – the Z Kaze, revealed this week at ZCon Arizona (USA).
The inspiration comes from the tuning culture of the 1990s, in the form of a convertible sports car with aggressive lines. There are no radical changes to Nissan Z, but there is not only the roof of opening, but also the carbon fiber hood with two air intakes, one aerodynamic body kit customized in the same material and wide mudguards.
It should be noted that the bodywork received some changes to emphasize the high performance of the car, with differences in bumpers in front and back, frontal splitter and rear spoiler. The 18 inch rims are also new, coming from a LMGT2 Nismo.
The interior of the car has white leather upholstery for seats, in order to highlight “the open configuration of the passenger compartment and the car”. There are some notes on carbon fiber and black details, which contrast with white. There are speakers Bose Personal Plus on the seat headrests, particularly useful if the roof is open.
Nissan Z Kaze's beating heart is a twin-engine V6 3.0 liters, whose performance data were not revealed. There are elements of GReddy, a well-known company dedicated to tuning – from the air-air intercooler kit to the Supreme SP exhaust system, also passing through the air filter kit. The suspension was also improved, receiving Nismo components – Nissan's high-performance division.
It must be clarified that Kaze is the Japanese word that means wind, and this Nissan came from the idea of a team of designers and planners of the manufacturer.
