Default Stock Class - What Nismo?

Are there any differences between the 2007 and 2008 Nismo's? Any benefit of one over the other in terms of stock class autocrossing?

I'm half thinking about trying to pick up a used Nismo for C-Stock for 2010, though I may still go the other route and get an 03/04 Enthusiast and play in STR.

Thanks for any input

What are the mods that would put you in STR? The SFSCCA club has a modified class for us called OSP, that I ran my first event in earlier this year.

Scott, if I go STR I would spend 2010 prepping the car to the fullest extent of the rules.

Long list, but the main items would be springs or coilovers, intake, ecu, rear sway bar, camber kit, aftermarket lsd...

Just realized you will probably be going to STR. If you don't have wheels already, 2 "sets" of rear track wheels might be the ticket (I have 4 )

Wheels are definitely something i'm going to need to get. I may need to take you up on those at some point

I haven't decided what else I'm going to do just yet, I'll make a list in the coming weeks. I don't know what shock options are out there anymore, but with the luck I've had with Koni on my 350 and my Z06 I will hopefully find something more suitable!

Let me know.

Hmm...Ohlin or KW coilovers? Otherwise I think your left with custom shocks and coilovers.
