I don't think the nismo should have NAV or power seats. But manual seats with leather and a better radio should definately be an option.
I believe weight reduction is important and nissan doesn't do a good job of it with the Nismo. My subjective opinion aside...

Remember in japan, they have more options in keeping cars light because they are not regulated to using the same amount of safety equipment in a car. And in the US, we Must build steel reinforced chassis's. In japan, they can use pure aluminum, steel reinforcements not necessary which saves weight. Thus making them have to find other ways to keep cars lighter in the US. I'm sure in japan, the NISMO is way more srtripped in its internals than the US version. J-spec can most likely keep features because of reduced weight in safety and structural areas... that's my best educated guess
