The Nismo edition of the 2007 Nissan 350Z has already been released in Japan and should be in U.S. showrooms this summer.
There are plenty of signature Nismo pieces within the interior, but the car is more noteworthy for special exterior bodywork developed by Nissan for racing, including a front aero splitter, a front bumper cover, rocker-sill extensions and a dramatic rear treatment with a wing.
We'll see what's next for Nismo, as we hear it's preparing a 400-hp 380RS edition of the Z-car that will be powered by a detuned version of the 3.8-liter V6 used by the Autech-prepared Z-car driven by Michael Krumm that won the 2006 Japanese Super GT racing series.

 CanadianDriver: Feature - "Z Power": Nissan NISMO 350Z
The sense of quality and integration is palpable the moment you pull out of the parking lot in the NISMO Z. It feels like a total high-performance car, rather than a car that's been souped up; the same engineers that designed the car are the ones who worked on the parts as well.
The funky NISMO graphics package, which is one of the few stripe kits I've ever liked on a car, is $240.
The beauty of the whole NISMO thing, and indeed the beauty of the whole tuning thing, though, is that you don't need to do it all at once.

 Nismo 350Z Road Test Review - Sport Compact Car Magazine
NISMO had it easy with the Spec V. In stock form, the fastest of the Sentras is far from its potential and NISMO, as we saw in last month's test, can work wonders with that scenario.
NISMO seems to pair its secret, stiffer springs with shocks that have slightly less low-speed damping.
The NISMO diff is also stronger than the stock one, since it transmits torque through four pinion gears instead of the stock diff's two.

I have the Nismo sways along with the Nismo shocks and springs.
Considering they are $100 less than the NISMO bars and rated similarly, I think the choice is quite clear.
Either set will provide much better than stock handling, but NISMO doesn't really provide anymore enhancement than Eibach unless this car is strictly a race car..

 NISMO 400R - Review / Report
The NISMO 400R was intended as a road-going version of Nissan's GT-Skylines, to celebrate the race-track-success of the NISMO GT-R LM.
Additionally, special pistons and con-rods, a new crankshaft and a strengthened engine-block, in connection with a NISMO intercooler are responsible for the increase in power and also boost torque to a maximum of 478Nm (346 lb-ft) at 4400rpm.
On the passive side, NISMO brakes make sure all that forward-power is also decelerated effectively when necessary and race-style seats with harnesses keep the driver in place even during the most courageous maneuvers.

 Japanese Performance - Feature: Cover Story - NISMO S-Tune 350Z
There’s nothing like the real thing and, if you’re into Nissan, then NISMO – Nissan Motorsports, established in 1984 to provide manufacturer-backed performance parts for Nissan cars – is the pukka factory brand, full stop.
Yes, what you’re looking at is not a hotch-potch of parts applied to a 350Z but the NISMO S-tune GT, a full, complete car built by NISMO and offered on the Japanese market as a car in its own right.
Most strikingly, there’s one hell of a bodykit on the car which, NISMO says, is inspired by the GT500 racer.

The Nismo is the top of the Frontier line, which includes the Frontier XE (base), SE (popularly equipped) and LE (luxury edition).
Engine/transmission: The Frontier Nismo comes with a 4-liter, V-6 engine that develops 265 horsepower at 5,600 revolutions per minute and 284 foot-pounds (pound-feet to you purists) of torque at 4,000 rpm.

After driving both cars, one thing is clear: Both Mazdaspeed and Nismo made it a priority to improve the handling of their respective cars.
As nice as the Nismo 350Z is as a grand tourer, it can't match the RX-8, which was created to cater to sports-car enthusiasts who need more civility than your everyday sports car provides.
Nismo has already started by offering an R-Tune version of the 350Z, but we won't get that car here until it meets federal emissions standards.
