A New version of the Nismo ?

takjak2 · 05-16-2014, 01:34 PM

Well, everyone asked for the Juke seats is other cars. Got that.

I do like the new rear. I wonder how much of an aero change the front really is. It shares styling with the the current Nismo line which has William's influences, but the shape of the "old nismo" was developed and seem throughout Nissan's actual motorsports. Just look at Super GT shapes.

It's interesting that they dropped the rear wing. I do kind of like the new rear, but it goes with the new lines and won't look good tacked on to a 09-14 Nismo.

Can someone at ZDAYZ please take a tape measure to the vertical distances between license plate and fog light on the 2015 nismo, a 2014 nismo, and a non-nismo Z?

*edit* nvm found them. Please, oh please let those seats be universal for the Z34 platform!

Also, no performance changes and the Z34 continuing into 2015.

I really like all of the body enhancements minus the wing change... put the big one on this car and it would look great. The other thing that's throwing me off is anything that's accented in light silver; specifically the 2-color paint scheme on the wheels and the door handles. Would look less busy if the whole wheel was the darker gunmetal color and the door handles were also the darker gunmetal. Seems like they learned to change the color of certain accent pieces (headlight housings) but they didn't go all the way.

I think it looks fantastic!! Finally, a more mature looking NISMO with NAV, auto and some toned down styling. Love it!! But also very let down. Its just another Z. And the upgrades to the interior are still below what i got rid of my '13 Z for. Its nice just looks chincy.

It does look like it sits over the hatch. So it may be removable. You can see the edge over the bottom of the hatch.

don't love it, dont hate it...

KaienZ34 · 05-16-2014, 01:44 PM

I wonder if the wing is shaped the same as the sport one? So you could use the Carbon Signal add-on or the Mines add-on wing.

Looks like a mature Nismo and I think overall it looks good for a mid model refresh. I'm liking the front, the back so so, guess I got used to the high Nismo wing. Also I think this refresh means, that a new Z won't be coming out for at least 2 years.

370Z JT · 05-16-2014, 01:53 PM

I like it. Put on the nismo high wing, cs fenders and better wheels. It will look killer.

FrostyNaples · 05-16-2014, 01:54 PM

The cosmetic refresh is nice. Adding the auto = more buyers. Funny how after 5 years of people painting their headlight housings black, Nissan finally responds.

No performance gains though? This is just a cosmetic refresh, and I doubt the $$$ is still going to be low enough to grab more buyers. What is MSRP supposed to be? If its still 10k+ higher than base, they have another sales dud on their hands...

Very crude photoshop with 2014 wing.
