nismo rear end (bumper cover)

Post by **R350Zz33** » Fri Jul 04, 2008 4:51 pm

does anyone know if the new 07-08 nismo rear end will fit on a 04?

Not unless you buy all the rest of the pieces...the Nismo is wider ALL the way around.

u have to get fenders too then?

Post by **cuffuup28** » Sat Jul 05, 2008 3:06 pm

Yeah, and side skirts, and front fenders, or nothing will match-up...skinny front end and fat back end! Unless you like your women like that...

um, I'm fairly certain taht the Nismo's addition track width is due tot he wider wheels, as for the "rear end" I assume you mean the diff? in which case as far as I know it's the same short snout R200 viscous LSD found in all non base level 350Z's, and so it will interchange but in a base model you need the shafts as well

na i ment the rear bumper sorry should have added more detail

Post by **cuffuup28** » Sun Jul 06, 2008 4:25 am

Nope... the NISMO is bigger.

Exterior (inches) Wheelbase 104.3 Overall length 169.8 Overall length (NISMO) 173.6

The lengthening of the body makes the bumper, fenders, and side skirts bigger than a standard 350Z. Maybe wider was the wrong word to use, but either way, the NISMO bumper will not fit on a standard Z without changing a few other parts.

ah, you were asking abotu the bumper cover, "rear end" generally means differential, I added to your thread title

The NISMO edition rear bumper cover is a direct replacment for all years.

It is quite expensive. Follow this link....

NO IT'S NOT...I wish you guys would quit steering this guy in the wrong direction. I have had 2 guys come into my body shop with that NISMO bumper, trying to have it put onto an older model Z, and IT WILL NOT FIT!! (Gee...why does this bumper look bigger? BECAUSE IT IS!!) If you want to, it can be made to fit with modifications to the bumper, and bumper supports, but that's gonna cost you even more. Just find a nice aftermarket bumper that will be a direct bolt on, and look better. Of course that's just my 2cents...I think that is a hideous bumper.

You don't need to buy fenders! I have a friend that put one and it's a direct replacement. The NISMO quarter panels are not wider.

Maybe you shouldn't have turned away the business.

This is a 2007 Z ..... I think he had to trim the ends of the aluminum bumper underneath, but that's it.

The only thing i dont like about that Z^ is the lights for some reason they get to me.

Post by **rmezz13** » Mon Jul 07, 2008 11:50 am

LOL those are factory JDM tail lights. Come stock on the fairlady Z. I actually like them.

Post by **snwbrdr435** » Mon Jul 07, 2008 3:17 pm

I duno im just not a fan of the chrome surrounding the lights i guess.

Post by **R350Zz33** » Mon Jul 07, 2008 4:08 pm
