Nissan Sport Brakes

Balance doesn't just apply to cornering. Bringing the powerful 370Z® to a halt are its largest brakes ever—available 14" front rotors, with the gripping power of 4-piston front calipers. Purpose-designed ducting helps to reduce fade and provide predictable and precise stopping power.

Is this a new feature on the 2014's or does the 2013 also have new brake ducting as well?

Not sure if this has been brought up but can we swap 2013 front bumper with the 12' and older? I had a discussion with another member yesterday and was given the okay, but need more confirmation to make sure. Thinking of getting a new 2013 and swap bumper with the older model.

I don't see why you won't be able to swap them out. Wiring the DRL should be simple.

Wouldn't you want to get a 2014 and then swap the bumper? It's cheaper than a 2013.

Good move. trying to sale as much as they can before the 15 comes out. I'm sure the 15 will jump right back up.

The Z's price drop most likely has to do with the Japanese governments decision to produce more yen. If this is the case, there's a good chance that the BRZ/FRS prices may drop as well.

Now let's see if this will affect the GTR. It just might sway some of us here.

enkei2k · 07-25-2013, 08:28 PM

So if you bought a 2013 model and kept it with fairly low miles, you can probably do a straight across trade for a 2014 model? or even get cash back?

Nissan has been dropping the price on their entire model line, including Infiniti. I think the GTR is the only one holding out lol. M56 isn't cheap either. But for the most part, Nissan went aggressive since the beginning of the year pricing their cars.

Im hoping to get the 13 down even lower when dealers clear out inventory for the 14'

I paid around $37K OTD for my '13 sport last Oct. and I aint even mad. Im glad I can afford to drive the car I wanted for a long time. and seriously life is way to short to fret over a couple grand wasted. Enjoy what you have and life is that much sweeter.

Interesting guess I'll have to check it out when I get a hold of mine...I kinda doubt it would as I recall people seeing this on the 13 and it turned out to only apply to the nismo but we shall see very soon hopefully :-)

Cracks me up that they want to charge $520 for Nismo brake pads and you can get them online for $240 (or less).

Nissan may be thinking the GTR is still a value for consumers comparing it to Porsche, Ferrari and other cars in that class. Maybe when the C7 comes out and if it cuts into their sales, they may re-price it.

The re-pricing of the yen has changed it's exchange rate by over 20%. So if they can still keep selling GTR's at the current price (not that they are really selling a lot) they will be making a decent profit on the GTR.

That's so true, many men died with more money than they could ever spend, but no one ever got more time with all that money. Not one second more.

Motto? You can always get more money, but no one ever got more time.... so spend your time more wisely than your money, it's worth far more.

I'm spending money and time-driving my Z!
