Is the NISMO worth it?

just saying, no nismo part is better than an aftermarket part you can get for MUCH LESS and performs BETTER. If somebody selects a nismo in the first place, they

just saying, no nismo part is better than an aftermarket part you can get for MUCH LESS and performs BETTER. If somebody selects a nismo in the first place, they OBVIOUSLY must enjoy the nismo exhaust, springs and other opinions that are not available on the NON-NISMO OPINIONS. So why invest that much money on Nismo parts when you can spend much less on better quality. The nismo exhaust is not the greatest, the springs are not the greatest and the rims are not the greatest.... NOR the intakes. You can upgrade a sports package or a base Z and still end up spending less that purchasing a nismo. Unless you live in Montana, a decent shop is NOT hard to find. The hassle of spending 15 minutes online and reading 15 companies reviews and checking out local shops through forums from word to mouth is a simple task and if that is a problem then life must be really good to you where effort doesn't exist. I will even cut you a break and disclose my list of goodies.

Spec-S Full Aero
Shine Auto Project
Front Bumper 300
Side Skirts 350
Rear Bumper 200
850

Peachtree Paint Shop
Located in Douglasville
Roof 170
F. Bumper Blk 50
R. Bumper Blk 50
Kit painted Red 350
620

Exhaust,Springs, Intake
ERZ performance - Performance car parts , Auto Accessories - 404 Error
Invidia Race Pipes 200
EiBach Springs 235
435

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

TOTAL: 5,280.00
MSRP BASE: 29,000

TOTAL:34,280

Compare the 34k to the 40k nismo. 6k savings, you can buy a Stillen supercharger kit. Compare the parts disclosed above with what you get with NISMO. You get better parts replacing nismo parts and PLUS Additional parts as show above. I don't mean to offend anybody but just making a point because I don't believe you have to be fortunate to purchase a nismo as stated in the previous post. The reason Nissan doesn't make many is because of simple SUPPLY AND DEMAND. I promise you if Nissan had 1 million pre-purchased NISMO's they would indeed product 1 million. I had the opinion of a Nismo but thought it wouldn't be a great idea since I would be modding an already overrated MODDED car. Why mod a car that you purchased modded for THOUSANDS MORE than base??? makes absolutely no since.
