I think the ECU tune is the same on the nismo and the regular 370. The difference in power from the factory is the exhuast not the tune. As far as is it worth the money to get the tune i really don't know.

the ECU is different, the tune is different. I don't know if it can be tuned from uprev or the like.

The ecu tune is different. Sam at GTM tuned Stormcrow's nismo that he had TT. He alluded to different map and fuel points on the nismo ecu. Not sure how much gain you can expect. I'm in for results if you do it.

So the factory tune and the exhaust are different. All that was gained was 18hp and 6tq seems pointless but hey you learn something new every day. Thanks for the info

Looks like Sam at GTM has done some nismo tuning, but i don't know what results they've gotten.

I had an Uprev tune scheduled for July 7th however I just cancelled bc I wanna wait until I get my F.I. exhaust installed and since Tony is runnin a lil behind I had to push back the tune. I really just wanted to dyno the car but thought it would be interesting to see if a reflash would give me any extra results and thought what the heck another $300 might as well. When I get to it... surely sometime this month i will post my results and videos.

I went by Cobb in Plano, TX a couple of weeks ago and they are working on it and hoping to be able to tune the NISMO in 4 to 6 months.

Feel you Vipor lol

I have a 2009 NISMO rom in COBB AP format that was converted by a COBB engineer to flash to a 2009 Z, it made no difference to my vehicle, I ran it and logged it, exactly the same feel to drive, I do believe COBB dynod this ptm on there own Z and made the same power with both revs ??

Go figure
