NISMO Owners tell me...what you hate

I don't have one, but I hate that you pay that much extra for parts you will end up replacing except for maybe the pretty wheels, seats and body kit. I also hate that I like the body kit so much.

Nismos are nice if you want to buy a car and never alter it. I myself prefer to buy a base car from the factory and then use the difference in money to modify it the way I want. No sense in buying a Nismo if you plan on changing everything. The other downside with owning a Nismo, there's generally less aftermarket options. Many parts are designed using Non-nismo Zs.

There aren't that many aftermarket stuff that's model specific. The Nismo is just a base with a body kit, wheels, exhaust, suspension and a tune. Everything else is pretty much identical.

he probably means things like diffusers, lip kits, skirt addons ect.. most are made for the base body kit.

Nismo lip kits are expensive!

This is exactly what I meant. In addition, most intakes and turbos require you to drill out the air guides on the Nismo crash bar for them to work. There are also some Nismo specific exhausts due to the change in dimensions.
