I suggest you either ask Jeff at performance Nissan or Greg Vogel at Mossy Nissan about these parts. They are both very pro mod Nissan dealers and sell these Nismo parts just 5% over cost. Greg dynos each of these parts thus knows the real hp gains. Both Greg and Jeff have modded Z's themselves. They can sell you them and ship to you if you like.

I am suggestiing them because they are great guys to work with. Jeff does not even care if you buy from him because as he has said, their profit margin is so small fpr this stuff. He is a vendor on this website and if you find his thread, you can use his prices with your local dealer and see if they will match his prices.

I hope this helps! Jeff

I think in the future they will have an R and S tune suspension but right now the R tune and S tune parts are different parts from each other.

S tune is more for the street, and R is more for the track

you will not find a similair product under both types.

one cant be better than the other if their all different.

Rtune was basicly the way for nissan to put everything good out side of warrenty except for the headers and suspension.

even CAI is Rtune(not warrentied), kinda kills the idea of a warrenty on a FI kit.

I thought I saw somewhere that the nismo headers have larger HP gains over borla?
