Jetpilot Posted November 26, 2015 Author Posted November 26, 2015 Can someone put me straight please. What version are these? Is this just a std 350 with nismo v3 kit? Is it the 380Rs? Are there any engine mods etc? Quote
JetSet Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Just called a 350Z Nismo or I've seen it called the Fairlady Z Nismo The Nismo edition of the Nissan 350Z Coupé debuted at New York International Auto Show on April 4, 2007. This version featured the same engine as the regular 350Z (VQ35HR) but was only available with a 6-speed manual transmission. The car featured NISMOaerodynamics package based on the Super GT championship car, which included an aggressive front fascia with chin spoiler, side skirts, an extended rear fascia with under body diffuser and a rear wing. The car also had NISMO-tuned independent multi-link suspension developed by Yamaha, Brembo brakes with four-piston front and two-piston rear calipers (with 12.8-inch (330 mm) front and 12.7-inch (320 mm) rear rotors) and NISMO-branded gunmetal grey RAYS alloy wheels (18x9-inch front and 19x10-inch rear with 245/40WR18 front, 265/35WR19 rear Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tires) and a NISMO-branded tuned exhaust. Yamaha also included a front and rear dampener to help with stability with the chassis. The conversion process for the Nismo 350Z began with a limited number of chassis being pulled from the assembly line to be sent to Nissan-tuner Autech to have structural seams hand-welded for greater body rigidity. This process made the Nismo 350Z a more capable track car than the other trim levels available at the time. The NISMO 350Z went on sale in the USA in July 2007 at Nissan dealers.[17][18] 1607 were produced for the 2007 and 2008 model years, and it was assumed that if there was a greater demand, more would be produced, limited to 10% of all 350Z sales. The NISMO model 350Z had a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $38,070 for the 2007 model year. Pete Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 26, 2015 Author Posted November 26, 2015 Must be some error as thst says they were only available in manual, this is auto. So there are some Nismo goodies underneath 1 Quote
JetSet Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Must be some error as thst says they were only available in manual, this is auto. Hadn't noticed that, need to investigate further Pete Quote
Stuggerz Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Didn't the owner only join up a few days ago? Pete Yeah i thought i saw that post a few days ago Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 26, 2015 Author Posted November 26, 2015 If its from Wiki I would suspect it to be completely accurate Quote
veilside z Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Nearly 180 mph? 4.8 seconds on an auto box ??? :wacko: Quote
Grundy Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 That rear bumper I want to call Bullshit, but didn't realise there were imports for 07... The Nismo badges on the bumpers make me think it's not. Might be only genuine nismo v3 kit in the uk.... 1 Quote
ZEUS Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 He joined here recently, if you look at the eBay ad it says that 350z uk owners club says it's the only one in country or something like that. The body kit looks right to me with the arch extenders etc. Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 26, 2015 Author Posted November 26, 2015 It also says under 5 sec 0-60 and top seed of 177 and mapable to 350 Very rare car either way, is it worth it, probably to someone as a collectors piece Quote
Sargara Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Thats steep money for what is essentially a body-kitted automatic import! The fact its not a manual would make me doubt that there are any other Nismo goodies lurking beneath. Quote
mdunbar Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 It's all in the eye of the beholder, but that body kit is hideous... rare or not. The 350Z has beautiful lines, so why would you want to stick bits like that all over it? 3 Quote
Grundy Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Grundy would It's gooooooooooooooorgeous. Need a new rear bumper too Just no one selling them 2 Quote
Jetpilot Posted November 26, 2015 Author Posted November 26, 2015 Thats steep money for what is essentially a body-kitted automatic import! An original Nismo one of only 1700 or so made, worth every penny. Being an auto or import is completely irrelevant because of the above. Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) You certainly have an acquired taste Grundy That nismo rear end is just so so wrong imo ! Edited November 26, 2015 by Bodyboarder81 3 Quote

Bodyboarder81 Posted November 26, 2015 Posted November 26, 2015 Back to the topic though ...... If it's a genuine nismo I would have thought it's worth that all day long .... Even if I'm not personally a fan of it . 1 Quote
