NISMO Note released for JDM market
 

You need one Mike.

Why CVT in everything!?!? I really dislike CVT. Maybe in 30 years, CVT would be decent but it sucks when you want to start making power out of the engine.

Nismo note without the S sucks from every aspect of performance imho. The Nismo should have been rated at 155hp and the Nismo S @ 175hp. Regular notes should bump 138hp.

Underpowered. Straight out the Mazda handbook.

Sentra should be Nismo 175hp and Nismo S 200hp

If they make a Nismo 4 banger Altima? It should rate 200hp for the Nismo. 220hp for Nismo S
A v6 altima Nismo should be 290hp, no S should be needed on the v6 Altima.

Nismo maxima 306hp.

There Nissan. I gave you numbers on paper. Go make these vehicles TRULY successful now.

the part that most people dont know is that the Note weighs just a bit over 2400lbs. and with 138hp that pretty much puts it in mx-5 territory and last i saw, the note is actually making up almost half of versa sales in the US which have been going through the roof. i understand where you're coming from, but the way the Note sits in NISMO forms, it will be no slouch in terms of performance

They're cheap to manufacture and they are typically more reliable than a traditional slushbox. Service is easier as well. If something goes wrong, they just replace the whole unit.

and 124% of people in japan that likes these kinds of cars dont know how to drive MT now.
