Here you go guys, check out these newly-released images of Nismo’s own take on the all-new 370Z. Now I dunno about you, but that crazy-ass bodykit is growing on me…
We’ll have more info on what makes the S-Tune tick shortly, but for now check out a few more pics of Nismo’s latest project after the [...]
Japanese aftermarket metalsmiths ARC have apparently developed a new "Performance Bar" for the Z33-based Nismo 380RS, which ties together the front of the engine bay and bridges the gap between the very ends of the frame rails. To be honest, I’ve never considered the 350Z’s chassis to be especially wanting for rigidity [...]
All you GT-R freaks and Nismo-philes listen up: Nissan Motorsports International has finally announced its parts lineup for the R35 GT-R, and there’s some tasty-lookin’ pieces of kit on offer. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the upgrades are only available for purchase by Japanese GT-R owners and that [...]
Okay, so I’m about a week late with this news, but I just thought I’d let you all know that the Nismo-fettled R35 GT-R entered in last weekend’s Tokachi 24hr finished the race in 21st position out of a field of 28 entrants.Despite setting the third-fastest time during practice, the Motul Nismo R35 suffered from [...]
Nismo’s entrant for the upcoming Tokachi 24 hour enduro has been spotted at the Sendai Highland circuit undergoing testing in preparation for the big race, which begins on July 20.Clothed in a vibrant hue of red, the stripped-out GT-R is supposedly a testbed for Nismo’s future parts line-up for the R35 and as we can [...]
Nismo have announced that they’ll be campaigning the Nismo Motul GT-R at this month’s Tokachi 24-hour endurance race, with the race also doubling as a testing ground for Nismo’s new parts range for the R35.If Toyota Team SARD choose to return to the Tokachi enduro with last year’s all-conquering Supra HV-R then Nismo may face [...]
If you found Nismo’s 380RS-Competition a little too confronting (and expensive), then perhaps you might like to try Power House Amuse’s own 380RS Superleggera. It’s not fully released as of yet (Amuse’s website promises that it’s “Coming Soon”), but Mike Garrett from Auto Otaku was at a recent Amuse track day at Tsukuba and managed [...]
Nismo has announced that the 2008 version of the race-ready Fairlady Z 380RS-Competition is now on sale. Don’t get your chequebooks out just yet though, because this machine is definitely not for the average Sunday driver. With 400 metric horsepower and 421Nm of twist, the naturally-aspirated 3.8-litre VQ35HR-based V6 is the centrepiece of the 380RS-C. [...]
Nismo has finally released specs on their all-new GT-R Super GT racer, confirming that the VK45DE-based V8 used by past Super GT 350Zs will return in the R35 chassis for the 2008 season. Given the prodigious amount of thrust produced by the road-going R35’s VR38DETT, some may question Nismo’s decision to ditch the twin-turbo six [...]
According to Autoblog, Nissan’s performance arm, Nismo, is set to extend the reach and availability of their parts and services to every Nissan dealership in Japan, while a similar scheme may also be rolled out for the rest of the world in the near future. Soon, you’ll be able to rock up to your local [...]
