nismo parts?

JayYoon · 09-07-2010, 08:24 AM

So I was checking out some nismo things and some things got me bit confused.

So if I were to get a 370z nismo edition, are these the same parts as the nismo parts that are sold separately on the nissan site?

This is what I am thinking...
As I was searching online... I came across something called "S-Tune" which I am assuming are different from the nismo parts from the 370z nismo edition. I am assuming that "S-Tune" are the parts that are sold separately on nissan nismo parts from the nissan site.

I am assuming that these are "S-Tune" which are different from parts from nismo edition 370z.

Aero Components, Front Chin Spoiler
Aero Components, Front Nose Finisher
Aero Components, Side Sill
Aero Components, Rear Underbody Spoilers
Aero Components, Rear Decklid Spoiler

What do you guys think? Am I kinda right or way outta my head?

Also are "S-Tune" better?

here are some pix that i was able to fine some online~~

Yes, the S-Tune aero parts are NOT the same as the Nismo edition car. But other parts, like the S-Tune suspension are the same. S-Tune exhaust is NOT the same either, but close. (Y pipe vs H pipe), Nismo wheels are also different. So I would say most parts are different for S-Tune.

I see, are s tune better or worst in ur opinion?

IMHO not as good as they are add ons. (front lip, rear bumper add ons, etc) but they are cheaper too.

I personally like the Nismo edition aero kit much better. Thats what I am doing to mine.

jay- before you get the aero bits make sure you have at least the sportpackage 19's with offset spacers to make the car look good with the aero kit. with the sunken in 18's + aero bits it will make your car look out of balance.

oh no i was just looking through... but it has to be sport package? i understand rims but why does it have to sports package?

kenchan · 09-07-2010, 02:54 PM

i meant it as a minimum... you can use any 19's you'd like as long as the offset is somewhat more aggressive than stock.

JayYoon · 09-07-2010, 09:32 PM

ooo ic... hahaha i thought ur car had to be sports package or else it wasnt compatible...

IMO I never liked the S -tune products. Looks bulkly . You need something with clean lines.

i can see where ur coming from.... i think its just different taste... cause personally i prefer s-tune over the regular nismo edition 370z... but its only personal opinion... i dun think theres rite or wrong answers...

The cost difference is another big thing to consider. I quoted someone a FULL NISMO aero package with wheels + shipping (freight via FedEX). The total at a highly discounted price, before shipping was $10,000+. And thats before paint and without the car!

(This gentleman wanted a Chicane Yellow Roadster with the NISMO aero package and wheels. I thought that would be pretty cool to see!)

The full S-Tune kit, pre-painted, will run you around $5,500 shipped with wheels and it comes pre-painted.

I personally like the true NISMO Edition over the S-Tune.

JayYoon · 09-09-2010, 04:05 PM

anyone know how to get spoiler in black cherry?

Dustin@Z1 · 09-10-2010, 11:27 AM

You will have to get the NISMO S-Tune rear deck spoiler custom painted. Unfortunately Nissan does not offer a BLACK CHERRY color option at this time. The only way to get the spoiler at this point would be to order one in another color and have it resprayed.

Sorry for the bad news.
