Default Please help me I'm new to the car world.

A while back, I was looking through a car catalog and there was a section that said "Cars 50k and under" and I found the Nismo 370Z. I want to learn everything about this car and found this forum. Perfect. So here's my first question: What is the difference between Nismo 370Z and just a regular 370Z?

Lets be real here

A Nismo is a Sport package 370Z with a body kit (different wheels) and a bit of tinsel (chassis dampeners)

Now... It has an extra 18hp... If you plan on changing your intake/exhaust, which you will... You'll gain MUCH more than 18hp to the WHEELS


In my opinion, unless that look is what you yearn and die for... Save your money...

There should be a thread about this, use the search option.

As for thr NISMO thing it has a bose sound system, body kit, exhaust, red engine cover, random number plate, diffrent suspention, and brakes, and someone correct me if im wrong.

Well, you nailed it, I am going for that sport look. The 370Z seems too feminine for me (no offense, just not my type). Is there a way to get an amuse (nismo) body kit on a normal 370Z?

It only has a Bose if you get the premium package
And the bigger brakes are on the Sport package too? So I didn't mention that


It has a back breaking suspension, lol (I don't think it's bad, but worse than my Touring)
And you also get "Nismo" stitched into your seats! YAY!!! Lol

Amuse and Nismo aren't the same...


If you want an Amuse kit, buy an Amuse kit, don't be stupid and buy a Nismo and put an Amuse kit on it, lol

Neat look but performance first for me, looks second.

oh my goodness.

The older crowd tends to enjoy the NISMO's. I'm done modding... for now. I wanted my car off the lot breaking necks now, not later.
