They both are basicly the same car aside from the different body parts. An ECU would be an expensive swap right now. The key reprogam is not a problem for me. He can do it for free. He mentioned is if it maybe possible to get the flash code # from a Nismo and reflash my sport so the I am guessing it is the VVEL will be tuned more aggressively. He is going to the Irving, TX training center next month and said he will ask around up there. A couple of the trainer are pretty knowledgible or know somebody that is. I don't want to toast my ECU. Hell if the dealer is doing it I may get it warrenteed if it does ruin my ECU. I will let you know what he comes up with.
Honestly I thought the Nismo only had an exhaust on it to make it different? I could be wrong... the Nismo is only at 350 hp... if we are at 332, and a full exhaust makes about 18 hp to the wheels give or take.. that would do it wouldn't it?

Also, I wouldn't think it would be worth the trouble, as the Nismo has shown not to be much, if any faster than the standard models.
