Cool

For the money... u can do so much better in the aftermarket.
Base+sprt 33k. Nismo 39k. That's 6grand.

Eibach pro lines n sways. $800 installed. (Will probably ad .01g)
Intake+exh+headers+hfc. $2k. (You would have 26hp=9more thn nismo)
Oil+diff+p.s. + tran cooler. $1.5k (optimum perf)
Carb fiber hood+diffuser. $1.1k. (Reduce 40+lbs)
Ecu prog. $800. (8100rpm will give u better gear2power ratios than 7400)

The numbers come out a lil more than the cost of a NISMO with parts installed.
Honestly its so much more bang for your buck in the long run. You'd be guaranteed better track times in your modded nissan than nismo.
You will be missing the bodykit and rims for the money but, whatever u decide to put on l8r is your own idea of hotness... not some nissan marketer tryin to take your money.

Imho nismo isn't worth it yet. Maybe a refresh in 2011/12 will make the NISMO worthy
