hmmm, personally I think going for a 20b is not a good choice for a 350z. I'd rather drop in a LS7 so that it retains its signature - torque.

you should be glad...they took out a perfectly good performance "piston" engine to replace with a smaller displacement rotary engine! They know where the power is!

forget this engine swap. why not try putting a renesis in an lotus elise (not sure if this can be done) and dry carbon the entire body? Why spend the money on a 20B'd 350?

So a car owner who likes a 2.0 litre all motor rotary engine with a body of a 350Z can enjoy his/her car.

P.S
Too light is not good sometimes.
