That's the street legal version, so it has a bored and stroked 3.8l DE-based engine producing around 350bhp. They also made a track only 380RS-C with around 400bhp. They only made 300 of them, so pretty damn rare. Kind of anoying that Nissan could clearly get 350bhp out of the DE engine without making it un-steetable and yet the DE-engined regular Zeds had to make do with a whopping 74bhp less than that because of the stupid Japanese 276bhp gentlemen's agreement. Just think what a different class the car could have been in *sigh*

That is a HR engine that we know is good for well over 500bhp even in standard guise.
No it isn't. It isn't a DE or an HR, it is a detuned version of the engine from the 380RS-C which was based on a DE. So although it doesn't bear that much resemblance to either, it is genetically closer to a DE.

Its based on the HR engine. Its the same as the US models which were a 3.5 HR, its just been bored/stroked to a 3.8
As for bringing one in, theres already atleast one over here - may even be a 2nd one somewhere. I'm sure there was another member who bought one.
