And yes, the new 325 has the same displacement as the 330. Both are 3 liter engines with the 325 being detuned. This is probably due to component sharing rather than developing a new engine for the 325.

The Skyline GTR's numerals you mention are meant to distinguish the different generations. I do not believe the numerals correspond to the engine. The G numerals are (along with the rest of Infinitis lineup) named after the engine displacemen in a simlar manner as Merc/BMW. Ultimately I think we will see another engine option in the G and it will follow suit in a similar manner as the M/FX.

Yep. Good question about the japan naming though. My guess is as good as yours. Afterall, it's a Nissan in Japan too. I think they just market stuff differently in America for some reason.
