they look the same the only appearence difference is a decal are you talking about buying one?... well you cant buy either one as a complete car you have to aquire all the parts seperately yourself. the S tunes are warranted the R's arnt

the only BIG difference is the cams and headers there are a few more little differences like thermostats and coolers

the R tune has a light flywheel and uses a CAI where the S tune uses a nismo DRY high flow filter the exaust wheels, suspension aero kit and graphics are all the same

its not carbon fiber... that is a full imported JDM Nismo kit... just the lip portion is painted a darker grey...

the official US kit is going to be similar and will be around soon we hope...

There is no difference between r-tune and s-tune body kits, correct? I thought the body kit had no special name designator. It's just the "Nismo body kit".

(R-tune and S-tune refers to the performance parts, not the body kit.)
