No fog-light butt-plug on the nismo. No where to put it in your diffuser.

I got to poke around a '13 Nismo on the showroom floor today and could not tell much of a difference on the brake lines. Probably just a more rigid or nylon reinforced rubber.

I'm looking for the black piece that the light goes into... Do you know the name of the part? It is pictured in the Fairlady Z that I supplied the link to.

Does anyone have an opinion about an Uprev upgade chip or any other brand?

I just used Meguiar's Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner to clean my new Nismo rim. It cleans ok. Does anyone have cleaning and polishing product recommendations?

Man, enjoy your nice ride for a while! Plus I don't think Nissan left much on the table with the Nismo; performance gains will be at a premium.

Thanks. You're right. I'm trying to do too much at once. But I am enjoying this car! How do you like your Z?

got my 13 a week ago. magma red. boss package, all accessories available (mats, cover, nismo plates, lock lugs, airstem caps, kick plates). #0047

hey OP, you getting the zylon coating **** ? im skeptical about it, but i got the platinum package, with 6%. so it comes with zylon coating, scotch guard and finished interior, window, rim, and plastic protectant. they are also tinting it for free, as well as a full professional detail.

the car has more little changes than i thought from my 09. mirror heaters, some.... THING under the dash next to the start button that i dont know what it does (little fined vent looking thing) among the obvious changes like the GTR brake system "not rotors and calipers", smoked rims, annoying sat antenna on the roof, subtle color changes to the dash "black around the computer readout" even the key has a little Z on it now to indicate you dont just drive a normal nissan i guess. nice attention to detail. but one thing bugs me. on my 09 i had a nismo oil cooler, and it NEVER even with hard driving got above 180-200. now this one was supposed to have a oil cooler, which it does, but its the one that started coming on the Z's since 2012. and im pretty confused because it runs just as hot as my 09 did BEFORE i put the nismo cooler on it. runs between 180-220 with NORMAL cruising. obviously i havent opened it up yet, nor will i until about 2000 miles, so i dont know if it will actually overheat or not. But can anyone clarify that this cooler has a thermal plate??? so perhaps it only allows flow when the car gets a certain temp??? would make sense, but that costs extra money so i cant see nissan doing that.

will post pics of it when i get it detailed, coated and tinted next saturday. for now you will have to just look at the tiny 150x150 avatar lol, sorry it was a shitty quick pic and i didnt even get the whole car in it.

Where is the 13 registry thread!
