yup it claws through the pavement. Whereas the Z gets a little tail happy if the entry balance isn't right. The GTR eats up corners like nothing, with no drama, just straight annihilation.

Nitrouz,
Good luck with your new 370z once you get it. As Juno stated earlier, we made the switch a little while back and the Z is def more fun at legal speeds.

I do miss the space in the interior of the GTR though, the Z is a bit cramped for me but she fits in it just fine. Then again, I'm a tad bigger than average. So it may be of no consequence to you.

We've got the Nismo and we are super happy with it. Just upgraded the h/u and the nav in the kenwood unit is pretty much OEM quality and fit and finish on the unit is very very good. Since your plans involve so much mods, the Nismo probably doesn't make much sence for you, but if you were to just lightly mod the car, I'd say the Nismo is the perfect platform.

I'm sure you'll enjoy the Z immensely.

Hey thanks mate. I don't think I'll mod this 370z as much as my old 350, but I do want to do the basics (exhaust, suspension, kit, wheels, turbos). I guess that's all the Nismo inclusions, but I want aftermarket. So I guess a non-nismo would be best suited for me.

Anyways good luck! Hope you and Juno enjoy the car!

I guess you have your own opinion, but it seems that your getting rid of your GT-R because of lack of fun on the street mirrors my opinion of the car. Great for the track, boring on the street, no thanks.

Can't wait to see how your 370 turns out!

Your "basics" is more than 90% of us will ever do.

Absolutely. Our opinions mirror eachother, but the facts about the car, you sir have it incorrect. That's as far as I'll go with the GTR topic as the facts will stand and each will have their own opinion, just like any car.

Well, you sure know how to start a popular thread. That was a great looking 350 Z you had. Have fun with your new 370 Z if you do decide to get it tomorrow.
