And no serial number? 09-14 Nismo FTW

The reason the old, and new nismo have a .30 drag co. is because the body kit is creating downforce. This is designed into the car. You trade downforce (stability) for a slight increase in drag. The Sport package is slippery and has a .29 but isn't generating much downforce. Same story with the Nismo GTR. The base creates slight LIFT which gives it the .30, the sport makes the aero 'neutral', which reduces it to .29, then the Nismo adds downforce in the front and back, pushing it back to .30.

EDIT - I was always under the impression that the old Nismo has the .30, i never heard it being .29.
