Are the Nismo engines any different from the base or sport model Z engines?

I understand the tunes are different to extract a bit more power. But, is this only because the Nismo has an improved exhaust that's less restrictive?

Are the cams any different? Valves any lighter?

Is any part of the VQ (VQHR) engine forged? Crank?

Thanks
