Just got a 2015 Nismo Tech loaded

The only differences are a larger exhaust and a revised factory tune

I think they are talking about the design. Also quoted from the article:

"Unchanged is the 3.7-liter V6 engine, which produces the same 350 horsepower (18 more than a standard 370Z) and 276 pound-feet of torque as the current 370Z NISMO."

Beautiful car. They look better in person than in pics. Presence.

Is it easy to get to 450hp on these cars? There's one close to me that I'm heavily considering.

How is the ride, handling, braking?

Chuck33079

Easy to get 450 hp? Sure. Cheap? No. It requires about $10-20k for forced induction of some kind.

Thanks. Breaking is great. Stops on a dime. Ride is good for a sports car and I handling is very good.

triso07

Ouch. I have an Evo and I guess I'm spoiled into making power quickly for relatively cheap.

So, full bolt ons and a custom tune and we're looking at maybe around 400hp? I'm not talking to the wheels here.

Any way good luck with her. Seats are awesome and I happen to love the "alcantara" style touches throughout the cabin.

Welcome to NA cars. It's always so much easier to make power when you start with a turbo.

You'll be around 400 at the crank with the usual bolt ons and a tune. From there, open up your wallet.

lol I have a 350z but I actually left it stock. Not sure how I managed to do that. 400 at the crank sounds good. Just a little extra top end power and some torque is all I'm thinking.

Gotta love the nismo even in stock form

Welcome to 370.com
You just purchased my next car!!!
Post your opinion about it.. I'd like to know what you think of a few things...
I had an 09 6 MT...currently in a last G37, I'm going to the 7sp auto.. I've changed my opinion on the fun associated with those sweet little shifter after test driving a M235i..
I leave the gear changing to my ZX10R..
I'd love to get the Bimmer but the Nismo is just do damn sexy..

anyhow.. I'd like to know how stiff the ride feels and if you notice road noise..

CoralZ

Hi,

Thank you. The car is a great looking machine first of all. You are absolutely right. Damn sexy.

The car is stiff but not extremely stiff. I don't find it uncomfortable to drive at all. The complete opposite, I love driving it around locally.

The only other two seater I can compare it to is a 1986 Corvette my friend had when we were younger. It was worked and had over 360hp back in the early 90's. The corvette was stiffer than my Nismo. I've been in newer Mustangs but really don't consider them true sports cars since they are not two seaters.

I haven't noticed any real road noise. Nissan says they added more sound dampening for this Nismo. I haven't taken it on the highway but have done 60 on the side roads plenty and it never came to mind.

Any other questions, let me know.

Odd request.

Can you take a picture of your muffler? Actually a picture of the metal tag (plate) that is on the bottom passenger side?

I have a curiosity. I went and test drove a 2015 NISMO at a local dealership in STL and noticed that the stock NISMO muffler was made HKS. I got a hold of a NISMO catback from a 2010 or '11 and i believe the tag was stamped AUTECH or something else. Can't remember.

Here is a picture of my car:

I dont mean to be that guy but nismos need 15mm spacers all around anymore and you will rub or need to mod fenders or camber. I have swifts with 15mm all around, rear has -1.6 camber and its close to the fenders. Gorgeous color hope you get some mods on before winter!
