I would trust Nissan a bit on this as they have provided the numbers for it when the car was released. Was it 'officially' wind tested, who knows.

What I would like is a solid flat(as much as possible)under carriage. To eliminate drag,I "think" the GTR has this. Sorry totally off topic.

useless thread. waste of bandwidth.

Who thinks the nismo is better???

Waiz · 01-23-2011, 05:33 PM

The ZR1 is roughly double the price of a regular corvette. For the price you get near supercar status.

The Nismo can be found for slightly more than a Sport model thus its upgrades are worth the money.

This issue has been seriously beat to death, how about just being happy with what you have OP and calling it a day?

VCuomo · 01-23-2011, 05:39 PM

Guys, c'mon - the OP isn't really trying to start a debate on whether or not the Nismo is "better". He hears others saying that it is and he's just asking what the differences are between his fully loaded Z and a Nismo.

To the OP - there's not a whole lot of differences, mainly the differences in body panels (maybe some slight extra down force), I think it's rated at slightly higher horsepower, and cosmetic differences. That's about it.

The NISMO gets that nifty damper thingy in front of the radiator.
Doesn't the NISMO also come with different dampers and springs?

Ah, I just looked it up here:
2011 Nissan 370Z Coupe | Vehicle Specs | Nissan USA

So based on your question, aside from the NISMO bodywork, you don't have:

- NISMO-tuned suspension with increased spring, dampening and stabilizer rates
- NISMO reinforced 3-point front strut tower brace
- NISMO front and rear performance body dampers
- Wider Wheels: 19" x 9.5" (front) and 19" x 10.5" (rear) 5-spoke NISMO super-lightweight forged alloy wheels by RAYS®
- Aerodynamic Aids: Front/Rear: Negative-lift includes unique front fascia with splitter spoiler, aerodynamic side sills, negative-lift rear diffuser and rear spoiler
- NISMO Gauges, Interior Stitching, Plaques, etc...

Disclaimer: the above is a factual answer to the OP's question
