I'd like to know how Nissan came up with the "Z" portion of the name. It is known as the Fairlady Z in better car land, but I have no idea what the Z stands for/means.

I never said it did, I was just correcting someones false info. I agree with Matt too.

I would have to say the "Z" name goes to the 300zx.


I would take a chevy 350 over a vg30 any day .

I dunno either where the Z comes from, maybe has something to do with Zen? The japanese sure have a thing for putting z at the ened of anything..... guess its the uber thing to do in the land of the rising sun............. PS...... Chevy's are clownshoes...... The only Domestic I'll touch has mopar in the parts and the engine ends in ..... emi......

Nissan ownZ the Z, honestly. I'm a prior Z28 owner, and I knew when someone was discussing a "Z" they were talking 6 cylinders, not 8.
