I heard NISMO products are like OEM (for obvious reasons) but performance oriented. So I figure they'll last a good while (OEM) and be pretty usefull. Now then, wHo wants to buy me a power brace?

nismo parts are lame imho because for the most part they are designed for street use, which sucks. like all their sus links are stock links, painted silver, with a nismo sticker, and a hard bushing put in. yea ok like i want to pay 300 bucks for that.

I like Nismo,I have a few trinkits... nothing that bigrad cap... dressy and functionalthermostat... works welltranny mount... MUCH better feel from the car itself

but ive heard their LSD's are decent but not the best, and that their coilovers are great for a street car, but could be better for track

only downfall is $$$, if you can afford it... go for it, who better to tune a nissan than... nissan?

As far as real clutch-type LSDs go, Nismo LSDs are among the most inexpensive out there.

They tend to be either the same or a little cheaper than like Cusco, Kaaz, or Tomei, and way cheaper than, for instance, OS Giken or someone.
