Yeah, for some reason up til now there seem to have been more go fast
parts for the 12 valve (single cam?) version, but I understand that may
be changing. I'll go through my archives and see if I can't make some
weight comparisons between the KA and the VG. I do lean toward the inline
fours myself. One strong impression of the late Z-Cars I've always had is
how crowded the engine compartments are. Even so there are some very nice
VG-30 510's running around.
FWIW, I sincerely hope Nissan can stay afloat and keep us supplied with
parts for whatever we're playing with.
