A New version of the Nismo ?

Look at the uneven gap on the trunk lid! Someone PM Limeybastard, he might want to see this.

I think the grille on the Z thus far... I was thinking in my mind that silver would look really hot with the Nismo accenting. Now that I see it and like it

Indeed, must have been made on a Monday.

Such a beautiful way for the Z platform to be exiting production. I do love this I must confess.

I'm not really a fan of spoilers. The previous nismo wing is somewhat silly aesthetically and doesn't please all, but spoilers are so terrible in terms of downforce for coefficient of drag. Isn't the low cd something the nissan engineers always go for? Ah well, I'm sure they know what they are doing, just kind of surprises me.

I've never see statistics showing "xxx time with spoiler" versus "xxx time without spoiler". I don't think spoilers make a significant difference in straight line time trials. Down force does affect stability and traction at higher speeds though. I believe the gains in traction control supersede the losses in drag.

Man I wish this was the Nismo when I bought my Z. So much sleeker without the boy racer wing, and they finally offer the tech package, I love it! This will look great dropped on Swifts + spacers.

Anybody have inside info on when dealerships will have the new nismo on the lots? I know its in July, but the dealerships I have called dont even know when they will get them. I mean someone has to know, its half way through the month. I would really like to see it in person before considering buying it.

I'll be really curious to see one in person. I may have to drive one. Not really interested in buying one, but those seats would be cool and I wonder how much difference the final drive ratio will make in acceleration.

The seats are Recaro Sportster CS. I'm sure there are reviews somewhere. If you want to purchase a set. You can get them aftermarket, or a member here has a set from a Juke Nismo for sale. Same seats, just different covers.

There are also a few members who have put 3.9s in their diff. Search the forums for their opinions.
