could be a nice source of ideas for all the guys with the regular version. to me, it's nice when somebody figures out a good suspension tune to help me map out my upgrade path on a vehicle.

test drive the new car, then figure out what you like and don't like and start installing the good things.

other than that, it doesn't seem like much of an improvement having the same engine and all.

What, no added HP??? I would expect something better from NISMO. If not boost, at least updated heads, or a stroked block!?

I think it's pretty hot. I love the rear diffuser, and the suspension tidbits sound compelling as well. However, I am pretty disappointed that they would change the exhaust, not to add power, but to change the note. Seriously, Where's The Frisbee? For the sake of cost, if there was to be no performance gain, they really could have left the exhaust alone (rather than find a justification to raise the price even more).

I no likey!

I personally think the front and side shot look "ok" (could've done better with it) and I like the interior, slightly biased only cause I'm a classic Z guy, in addition to my G I own a '72 240Z and I like the fact they tried to pay homage to it and most noticeably on the interior. I've never really liked the rear of the new Zs to begin with and I'm not really for bodywork that juts out that much so they definitely lose my appeal as soon as I look at the rear bumper/diffuser.

As far as the performance upgrades I'm sure there's a few but I just looked at it and stopped there..lol
