Nismo suspension is different, and stiffer:

"The Nismo's suspension is tuned for a firmer ride and sharper handling. Compared to a standard 370Z Coupe, front spring rates have been dialed up 15 percent, rear spring rates 10 percent, front stabilizer bar rate upped 15 percent, and the rear stabilizer bar is 50 percent stiffer. The roll stiffness rate has been increased by 15 percent and front and rear damping factors have been increased by 40 percent and 140 percent, respectively."

I'd probably like it - I'm used to a very stiff car and the Touring+Sport is a little bouncy.

I think the Nismo looks great, but the video comparison of the 300ZX to the 350Z and 370Z the 300ZX owner felt the 370Z was a little too harsh for every day driving, the Nismo will be stiffer, so it depends on what you want. I love the looks of the Nismo, however.
