The body bracing allows it to endure more track time than the sport, it is more protected from body flex and has better Aero. It has 18HP to compensate for the 88lb deficit.

Other than a little bit of extra help in the endurance dept. And some dampers. They're the same car. They sell a nismo body brace kit for for the sport. I think it's $1,800. Don't quote me on price. I'm sure that'll make them equal.

The Z sport has big enough wheels for track duty, the nismo is a Lil extra for the cars size. PS4's are probably too much for the capability of either car. Those are designed for these 500+HP cars.

Jus sayin.
