just looks like a 350 with some new lights and a slicker rear.. they need more of a difference to call that a 370. like the difference you can see between a 240 and a 300

they so this because of the displacement of the engine. this may not be called a Z34,.they may add a another letter to it and be something like the examples below.

the 240z-280z was a s30. the 280zx was a HS30, the 300zx was the Z31 then z32..

240z



260z



280z



280zx



300zx

and yeah it does look like a 350z....much in the same sense the 280zx looked like the 280z
They did that with the 180sx. It was only had the CA18 for 2 years after that it was the SR20 but they never changed it to the 200sx in japan.
