So it didn't make any sense to me. Since the Nismo has a stiffer suspension it should handle better.

SHOULD, problem is that stiffer isn't always better, if its too stiff and there isn't enough give to put the tires on the road, you get less grip and slower times. That's why it is slower around a track (there have been a few track tests)

Btw, search and you shall find
