It's a concept only, at this stage. It has been well-received though, so it wouldn't surprise me to see Nissan offering it as a factory option.

I remember seeing a review of an unofficial SC-ing kit in evo ages back, not too long after it first hit the market. It's surprising it took Nissan so long to explore it themselves.....

The one your thinking about was a conversion that Middlehurst offered with a Stillen supercharger IIRC.

The new potentially official one uses s supercharger by Novidem. Apparently it's been touch and go as to whether it is made official - even if it is it will be in limited amounts of around 100 as they won't want to steal the GTR's thunder.

You can get a twin-turbo kit for the Z now too, ~450bhp IIRC.
