Possible Nismo Z Owner?

Rusty

Full bolt-ons. Headers, full exhaust, cai, Z1, ported manifolds, tune. You should see just over 330hp at the rear wheels. Stock Nismo is around 265~275hp at the rear.

Yea, Z1 actually sells a kit that they advertise with tune, exhaust, and CAI will put you at 400HP at the crank.

2011 Nismo#91

If you do all NA mods (intakes, down-pipe, exhaust, tune), you will probably get around 400 to the crank, our cars do lose a decent amount getting to the wheels though. So about ~+20% for $3-4k of mods and that's all unless you drop alot of money on FI.

If I had to replace my current Nismo the only cars I would consider right
now are the mustang and the genesis. Both have good performance numbers and good looks inside and out.

Thats pretty amazing theres that much to unlock still in the motor!

I just gotta find a Pearl White Nismo now haha! Will be my first Japanese car so I am kinda stoked.

Does anyone know if the older Nismo wing or Amuse will fit the new Nismo? I like the taller wing more than the duck tail. I read in an artical the hatch works different on the Nismo so didnt know if it was a different rear hatch all together.

Did you use Nissan's website to search for a pearl white nismo? You can build the car and search for that build or similar builds and the site finds all dealer inventory within a milage range that you specify. That's how I found my nismo. I ended up going almost 4 hours from home to purchase.

Ya only one close has a $10K dealer markup lol.

I guess I will have to order and wait.

Doesn't matter if I have to wait a bit I would rather not garage it from weather when I get it haha.

Noob the other thing you can do if your waiting on the spring is watch for the next year model to show up. The Nismos at the wrong dealership can tend to sit for awhile and you can end up getting a killer deal.

I wonder if there will even be a z car next year.

NZNoob

Is there a list some where of the Nismo parts vs Sport cars? Seems I am getting different things of different sites?

Read Nismo has SS brake lines aswell? I also read the sport breaks are Brembo design made by Nissan in house?

Read these are missing on the US car? https://www.z1motorsports.com/suspen...it-p-4746.html Anything else?

Sorry I am new to the Nismo Nissan world do they come out of the same plant or are they built somewhere else?

I used to be a hardcore ///M guy and was awesome when they were handbuilt in the 80s now they come out of same plant as normal cars. Pretty big bummer.

I have to admit having a car that you know where its made is nice. Seeing MADE IN JAPAN on some of the parts is slick. Having a Camaro that says MADE IN CANADA makes you scratch your head almost as much as finding MADE IN CHINA on your BMW lol.

I am not sure what you mean in the first question. If you check out the Nissan website you can read and see how the Nismo differs from the sport or base models.

I think the nismo has stainless brake lines. Can't recall for certain. The newer nismos do not have brembo brakes. They are made by Akebono and I believe they are Japanese.

I wouldn't say the body braces are missing. It's just something you can add to the car.

The z cars are all built in the same plant in Japan. Keep researching and you will find out where.

Most of these questions can be answered by searching this site, nissan site, and the interwebs. Keep on researching if you are going to buy. I researched for a good 3 to 4 months before I made the purchase. I knew much more about the car than any salesperson I spoke with.
