Probably. They are already in the 12s with bolt ons.

not everyone bought the nismo because it was sooo much faster than the base. some just like the exclusivity of it

in addition, resale value for a moded base model will be WAY less than a stock nismo

Totally agree

Actually I'm 28. LOL, I was speaking with a co-worker and he said if I where to mod my Z with everything that makes it a nismo that I could take it to Nissan and have them certify my car as a nismo. But if this does not exist I'd rather save myself the money and go beyond nismo.

This is like turning a MR2 into a Ferrari 355 and asking Ferrari to bless it and baptize it and say yes it is a 355 now. Its just not going to happen

Not quite on that level.

if you put the badge/body kit/ seats on a base model, i bet you could sell it as a nismo to 95% of the population....

not trying to spark any ideas...

Since its not possible and its confirmed my co-worker maybe full of hot air I will not attempt to make my car into something it is not. However I do have plans on installing the Nismo bodykit and rims, as for suspension, breaks, interior, and performace mods I do plan on going way beyond what Nissan has done with the nismo. Thank you all for you insight. And I am not changing my Name lol, so you OP name changers can kick rocks, I'm keeping my name.

Sorry to everyone on here that thinks Nismo is the ****!
But unfortunately it's not, just overpriced for being Nismo and the body kit (which is great).
Other than that it comes with intake, exhaust, tune, sways, rims, tires.
Not worth 38 or w/e the asking price is.
If I were you I'd get a base and just mod or get a used 09 nismo and mod that.
Cheers!

Overpriced?? i think not but theres plenty of other threads that can explain that one to you...
