Don't trump up the Nismo as a performance upgrade..... Suspension and Exhaust for "mods". Body and Wheels for looks.

However, by 2013 the Z may see direct injection or who knows what other changes, if that's your projected purchase window.

I've talked to some Z33 owners and taken what I know from my Z34...
- Interior is MUCH better
- Better overall motor (VHR)
- SRM is the sex
- Sport Brakes are close to the Brembos, for less (Base + Sport Package)
- HID is a standard
- The VHR is a nice bump from the HR, but I would stray far far away from purchasing a DE motor this late in the game, unless you get an INSANE deal and plan on doing a lot of internal work to make it fast. (If you don't plan to make it fast, the HR/VHR is worth the price difference easily.)

That's all I got right now. Jack & Sprite is making me wanna crash out lol
