This one has the Akebonos and the 19 sport wheels?

I've tried to find sites with vin decoders and had no luck. Got a link?

Look at the grade. Should say w/ sport. Good thru 2014 though I think.

I think he meant his own Z, not the one I posted.

Thanks for the link. It confirmed the Nismo, but didn't pull up anything on the other one?

Drove the Nismo today and am going to pass. Was a little rough, and as per recommendations my money will go further on a base + sport.

Exhaust was really loud, even when cruising at 80 in 6th. Is that just Nismo exhaust?

Did it say Nismo on the tips?

Did not look closely, but should have - I wondered if perhaps it was aftermarket. Certainly was larger than a regular sport

Odds are it was aftermarket as even though the Nismo has a different exhaust than the base/sport, it still is very quiet.

Based on those pics, the Nismo has an aftermarket exhaust. Also a new headunit. Wonder what else was modded.

MagmaRed370z · 12-31-2015, 02:53 PM

I would go with the 14.

That's good to know. I thought most stock and good aftermarket exhaust didn't drone at lower RPMs.

Agreed, that car wasn't meant to be. I'll keep searching for a 13 or 14 base + sport.

Beyond being really expensive, do you guys see anything wrong with this?

If your financing allows it just go get a gently used, Low mileage 09-12.

From 2009 to 2016 not much at all changed on these cars, It's not like the Z33 where it was damned near a different car after 2007 - Don't throw 5-10k out the windows for some bumper LEDs.

Same motor, Same interior.....the only drastic change the Z34 got was the 2015 Nismo.
