Hello all!

I'm not new to the car world, but I'll be a college graduate pretty soon and looking to step into a 370z pretty soon . I currently drive an 04 Sentra se-r spec v.

I just need some inputs from actual Z owners rather than edmunds or "Car N Driver".

Some of my questions about these Zs are:

I have my eyes glued on 3 models in particular:

370z w/ sport package
370z w/ sport package + touring
or
nismo 370z.

which one is better? what is the difference between the "sport package" and the "sport package + touring" besides the obvious leather seats?

The nismo model has 20 more ponies, suspension, and a higher rev limit. I'm not too concern about the nismo cosmetic or suspension enhancement, but I'm interested in the engine itself. What makes it have 20 more ponies? what makes it have a higher rev limit? are the internals of the VQ in the nismo different from the VQ in the regular? I know that the IPL g37 has a better flowing head supposedly than the regular g37, but I'm curious on what makes the nismo have a slightly different engine characteristics?
