*****NISMO to be official in the spring of 2003- press release inside******

http://www.freshalloy.com/site/featu...ema/home.shtml

Read the second paragraph of the article. NISMO is for real and they're almost here!
The NISMO exhuast for the 350Z made 8hp and 6lbs of torque. Remember JIC fabricated an exhuast for the Z in last months SCC magazine and it lost hp/torque so NISMO will not dissapoint. BTW, I saw my first 350Z today in person at a dealership. None of the photos do it justice. The aftermarket for it is going to be red hot and the body kits are going to be absolutely gorgeous. Will probably trade/sell my Max soon.

I think they will make lots of stickers and emblems for us. Maybe even a cool "Max powered by Nismo"

That does look like an intercooler in that pic, but if you look at the engine bay, it still has a stock air box and seemingly no room for boost... I guess all that could be down near the exhaust,but why still have a stock airbox then?

I was wondering if that strut bar on the 350z will fit the g35 coupe.. the engine bay is almost the same, except that the g35 has more wires and stuff in it.

Tell Nissan about this site. Obviously, someone at Nissan has their cranium inserted into their rectal orifice if they think Maxima owners don't want to mod our cars. Our base of customers (present and future) has to be at least several times that of the new 350 Z.

Think, Nissan, Think! It's about the $, Stupid!

Yes. There are race spec cylinder heads, forged pistons/rods, forged crankshafts, euro or ISKY cams, limited slip differential, brakes, radiator cap, head gaskets and headers.
