I go to Japan on quarterly basis. Mostly Yokohama where I often will take a walk from YCAT terminal through the Nissan World headquarters building where they have many of their cars on display.

I'd love to see where the Nismo cars are conceived and built if I have time there next time.
The 370 are all built together on the same production line at Tochigi, left hand drive, right hand drive, touring, Nismo. To them it is the same car just a few different parts get bolted on. You can take the public tour they do of the factory in Tochigi (all in Japanese with no interpreter unfortunately), I'd love to go some day. I believe you can register on the Nissan Japan web site.
