K while the nismo is decent its not the godly car with godly parts.

the performance list below out does the nismos
Z1 motorsports
Z1 370Z/G37 SS Test Pipes
test pipes 250
Stillen Headers 560
Stillen Exhaust 1262
Stillen gen 3 intake 550
lightweight pulley 190
Oil Cooler Kit 398
Short throw shifter 165
3375

that 6k i said you save........by a set of HRE's. THose are better than NISMO wheels. 3 piece forge wheels can range from 3k to 10k. You can spend 41k on a nismo OR 41 on a HIGLY modded 370z. Fitment issue is NOT a big issue with all kits and SHOULD THERE be a fitment issue I referred to the SHINE parts, which shouldnt cost much to fix SHOULD THERE be an issue. Nismo test there products, but hey, so does STILLEN. Say nismo outperforms stillens and I know this topic is dead.

I purchased my car for 29k NEW, carpet mats, splash guard PLUS tax......New Nismo is close to 39k plus tax. I didn't calculate tax for either above so the tax balances off.

29000+2030= 31030

39000+2730=41700

that's 7% where I live.. So 10k difference. Name something on the Mod list that I disclosed that NISMO surpasses it? Nismo doesn't even included MOST of the items i listed and many nismo owners mod up there car. So its just my .02 cents but I have to agree with FL 4 motion. This is kinda like Democrats and Republicans..........Both good agreements but both sides valid.
