Please tell us the hidden secrets.
So far all the NISMO has proven to us is that it's a 370Z Base + Sport with body kit and marginally better suspension.

You can only get just so much from a 3.7L V6 at a certain RPM with a certain amount of head-flow.

Jnaut has run a 12.30 on an RE-11 tire. He has LTHs, CBE, Stillen G3 (I think), clutch, flywheel, 4.08 gear, probably a pulley and maybe a couple of other things that, IMO, qualify as "bolt-on." That's with a 1.8s 60'.
IF he can run a MT ET Street without shattering the rear end, snapping an axle, or delaminating the driveshaft, I think he could dip into the high 11s on a 1.6x 60'.

I'd say the heads are pretty well optimized but we'll never know for sure until someone cracks VVEL.
