The NISMO is less than 70 lbs heavier, mostly upgraded handling components. Extra power is deceptive because it seems to be just at the top of the RPM band. Also, most early tests of the nismos have been before the engine has enough milage on it to be broken in. I've suspected the upgraded tires might be a little wonky but don't have any evidence to that effect, it just would explain the difference of the NISMO on paper comnpared to the actual early testing.
