Default Enthusiat vs. Performance? regarding suspension/crankshaft

Newb to the 350z here.

Im currently in my 04 RX-8 6 speed, but may want to trade in for more power and the Z has been a favorite since it came out.

Question I cant seem to find the answer to:

On the nissanusa.com website it states all Z's come with "multi link aluminum alloy suspension", yet when the different models are broken down one of the added extra's to the Performance version is "independent aluminum multi link suspension"

So is there a difference in the suspensions or not?


One last question, the performance version also comes with "Micro finished crankshaft and camshaft". What is the added benefit of this?

Thanks for any help

To my knowledge the only differences between the Enthusiast and the Performance are:

Enth - 5AT or 6MT, TCS, 17" wheels
Perf - 6 MT only, VDC, 18" wheels, Tire Pressure monitoring

That's it.

TPMS became standard on all Z's for 2005.

Rotary...there is no difference in the suspensions and all have the micro-finishing. The Performance adds VDC, 18" wheels, and 225-45/245-45 tires over the Enthusiast.
