The bottom line is that the Nismo is in a totally different class all by itself no matter how you look at it...It's factory made directly from Nissan giving it that true authenticity

The Nismo IMHO is for the true enthusiast who wants to have a NISMO.

I'll accept that my car will never be a Nismo, because it lacks the official number plate, but please define "outdo." Because anyone here with an exhaust, HFCs, and tune is probably already outdoing a Nismo, by my standards.

That in itself says a lot...because your standards are probably different from everyone else's.....but for the sake of discussion your point isn't necessarily true...I have an exhaust and HFC's on my Nismo and I've outran Base and Sports models at the track that have full bolt-ons and a tune....Then again that could all be contributed to driver skills which is a totally different topic....

Don't get me wrong...there are a lot of beautiful Z's out there that were converted from base/sports models.....My good friend SIMOTA is one of them out here on the island....Some may argue that there are other Z's out there that look better or might even outperform the Nismo...but it's still not an authentic Nismo....Compare the blue books and that's where you'll see the difference.
