Nismo Parts -Worth Replacing?

Yup, sorry about the gibberish. Got distracted by the wife lol, but your interpretation is correct. Going a FI exhaust is an excellent start!

Bought mine last year with < 30k miles. Added breathing mods and a uprev tune and just passed 40k... No issues whatsoever. Other than running a tad bit higher oil temps on a hot day (I've never passed 220), these cars were not "full of bugs" out of the box. I'm pretty sure the same could be said about all 370's. Nissan fixed the biggest bug, the DE motor, when they replaced it with the HR.

For me, the decision between a sweet deal on a 09-14 Nismo and the 15 would be a no-brainer. The 15 is pretty hideous, but then again beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Had a 2010 nismo prior to this one no issues for the 3 years I owned it.

Mods to do IMO:

Oil cooler

Fuel starve fix (esp if you track it)

Brake fluid lines and pads if tracking

Clutch line and fluid if tracking

Everything else is up to you preference wise but not required.

See I am still on the edge on which one I want. I want to see the 15 in person before making a final decision. I know the 10+ nismo looks amazing in person and very aggressive, I dont know about the 15 yet. I get paid to make ugly things look good for a living so I never make a final call without seeing things in person lol.
