nismo Vs base/sport

I think it's your grasp on the english language, and ability to formulate a proper sentence.

I believe someone asked if he could add the Nismo options to a base model, & would that cost less, or something like that. I addressed the tune part of it. Stating that yes you can get an after market tune & most will give a a bigger gain than the Nismo tune. I pointed that that gain was at the engine, not at the wheels so it's a smaller gain than it looks. That's according to the way we look at ALL our mod gains that we meassure. Again, the reason is because WE meassure & post H.P. gains at the wheels.

I seem to be forced to say that even a small gain is a gain. That's obvious, nevertheless I'll say it. "Even a small gain counts & is a gain" Feel better.

My point remains at what it was & is.

I don't mind & may like "wise guy answers/comment" but you are just plain insulting without really having the info/experience or a good sense of humor to make all those comments. That's more of my time than you deserve.

Someone asked the following question, I also quoted your reply. He did not ask if it would cost less, he asked if it would produce around the same hp. A question that was answered by several people to be a yes.

If you read carefully, he was asking if the Nismo had the SAME aftermarket tune and other performance mods as his car would the numbers be the same. He did NOT ask for a comparison of how a Nismo stock tune compared to an aftermarket tune. He was more or less asking if there were some tables in the Nismo tune that an aftermarket tune could not touch that would allow the Nismo to still make more hp with everything else being equal.

At which you decided to chime in, answer your own question and not the one asked and tried to continue your Nismo bashing because in this case 18bhp doesn't matter to you.

Finally, what does it matter if you can speak four different languages? That point has absolutely nothing to do with what we are discussing here. I have no need to speak four different languages. Furthermore, if I knew I was weak at speaking a language I would try to not be so offensive when using that language. The fact is, as your comment was written it implied that the gain only existed at the flywheel and did not translate into a gain at the rear wheels. When this was pointed out to you numerous times, you stubbornly stuck to your original point despite what is actually written and began insulting others because of it.

Rude, stubborn, and ignorant is still rude, stubborn, and ignorant even if you can do it in four different languages.

What if i had a base model. Got the same exhaust, intake, tune.

And then the nismo got the same exhust, intake and tune. Would they produce the same numbers then or very similar?

When mods like test pipes or exhaust or just about any mod is added, the Osires tune woulds make even more sense. With a custom tune you can also have your redline raised.

Just to add to this thread, an UpRev tune does not add HP... It does tweaks to certain areas to improve performance, but not raise HP...

Huh? Have you not seen the numerous dyno sheets here of before and after tuning that clearly show increased horsepower and torque?

If your car is not tuned to the mods you have then you are missing HP. An UpRev tune will give you more HP! I watched it with my own eyes..

honestly im really surprised this has gone 12 pages. everything that matters, and that can be said to make a valid point about the OP topic has already been said...... then repeated several times. those that are nismoless justify why they dont want one, those with a nismo are happy they didnt buy a base/sport :P end of never ending argument.
