Does the Nismo 370z handle better than the 370z sport package?

Now this is a question more than a statement. And it MAY again be just the jdm model, but ive seen in one of those nissan/nismo spec manuals that the nismo has different gear ratios. Has anyone else heard ANYTHING about that? Im trying to find where i saw it. Im not 100% about this one, and again I think this is a JDM thing. Im thinking I saw it on best motoring japan too or something I just cant remember. But everything I can find about the US version is the same. And yes, I merely assumed that the tranny was different because of SRM. Im comparing the car as fairly as I really can, You act like the nismo is the most expensive model. when in fact if you kit a convertible with sport and touring pack with every option "starts at 47k", its actually more than a nismo even with its bose pack"44.5k". Regardless of who thinks their right "dont care" I would like to see someone put together a grocerie list of aftermarket parts, or equal or greater quality for each thing the nismo has different than the sport and keep it under the 5k premium you pay for the nismo. its simply not possible. hell just a full body kit and exhaust alone is half that, suspension, tires, rims, "go ahead and stitch the seats yourself" leather trim, tune........ it cant be done. I dont know why people care so much. If you bought the sport, dont compare it to the nismo, if you bought the nismo, good for you who cares. It doesnt blow the sport away, its just a slight upgrade in an overall rounded perspective. more responsive, looks better, feels better, controls better. yes you can put AM **** on ANY car and make it better than stock. I can take a WRX and make it better than an STI with AM parts, does that make the wrx better than an STI? no, would I be an *** and justify why I bought a WRX to all the STI owners with all my aftermarket bull5hit rants? no. so stop being a child about it. Ive yet to see any 370 base/sport owner that I let drive my car get out after they were done and say "meh, I like the sport better" never once has that happened. until you have one AND the other in your possession for a while, you have no opinion. your opinion IS SOMEONE ELSES OPINION, because your going by reviews set by random *** people on the internet who have the car for a day or 2, in very specific conditions where one car might excel over the other, and a reverse in other conditions. Ive told you, its not as forgiving, its harder to launch. None of those tests were conducted by a professional race car driver, they are just all self proclaimed magazine car testers. Especially the road and track review everyone mentions about the sport beating the nismo at bumpy *** willow springs.
