Took the Z into dealership to see about swapping out the transmission under my extended warranty for the whine thats been getting progressively worse within the last few weeks...crossing my fingers that the adjuster from the warranty company gives the go ahead to replace it

Default Is upgrading to a NISMO worth the money

Hello everyone. I'm in the process of upgrading my 2013 370z base car to a NISMO. I planning to get the following:

1. Cat-Back Exhaust
2. NISMO Stabilizer
3. NISMO Suspension
4. NISMO Brake Pads
5. Akebedo Brake Kit

Do I need anything else to make my Z a true NISMO?

Fixed....

While some of the parts listed are a great idea, you'll really need to spend $$ on the body kit, AND a tune after you change the exhaust, if you want your base to be a NISMO. You probably should have just spent the extra $$ and bought a NISMO, if that's what you wanted. My suggestion(s), enjoy your base Z, peruse the forum for ideas, and then make a decision on what you want in the way of upgrades. Just so you know, the Akebono kit might require the 19" wheels, so that's another $2k just for wheels, tires are probably another $1k on top of that. I don't know what your budget is like, but seriously, if you wanted a NISMO, ya should've bought one.
