Nismo will have a 6/4 piston brake kit with larger slotted rotors and optional $450 pads out early next year which would be interesting if it fits the 370. Road & Track tested the pads in the base brakes on the track and raved about them.

Also for the 400 will be a coil over kit with rebound adjustment, adjustable anti roll bars, LM-RS1 wheels intake, larger intercooler, stainless exhaust system, clutch and flywheel designed to hold 800 hp, carbon mirror caps, carbon steering wheel trim, AL fuel filler and oil filler caps and titanium shift knob.

Moving forward it will be interesting to see what aftermarket 400 parts will also fit on the 370 as well as 3rd parties doing their research and simply adding the 400Z to their fitment listings of parts previously made for the 370.
The Z is already using the base/Akebono brakes so compatibility is proven from the factory. The 6/4 piston BBK is most likely the current R35 brakes rebadged as Nismo (similar to what they did with the SPL catalog 1-2 years ago)... which currently have adapters available through Z1.

Coilovers/airbag kits have also already been proven to be compatible (just like the suspension arms), so I wouldn't doubt the sway bars are the same; and the fuel/oil filler caps and shift knob(s) have been available for... over a decade at this point.

...and if you look at the undersides of the Z34/RZ34, the exhaust is the same from the cats back as well. So, skip the Nismo/Magnaflow/Borla and go straight for the big boy Fast Intentions/Motordyne/etc.

Honestly, for the companies that have supported the 370Z through suspension/exhaust components, the Z is blessing since Nissan really only changed the body kit, engine and part of the interior (dash/center console).
