A look at the Nismo racer's engine compartment. |
Nismo also had this limited edition Z with the larger motor and a special designed by Yamaha mass damper much like the technology banned from F1 used to improve the ride. Nismo employees that I know say this really works and the car does have a nice ride for a sports suspension equipped car. | The S-Tune 350Z sporting Nismo's new long nose aero kit. The Z's high-speed handling supposedly really responds to a long nose treatment, hence all of the aftermarket and factory long nose kits we spotted in Japan. |
A Nismo S-Tune version of the Versa. In Japan it's called a Tiida. |
The new G35 sedan tuned by Nismo, the G35 is the Skyline in Japan. |
