Ya know... I was gonna ask that very same question. Some people just don't know that the hell they are talking about sometimes.
I know that NISMO sometimes contract other companies to make parts for them but please let us not forget that they do most the their R&D work themselves. They don't need to copy anyone and in most cases they are the ones being copied.

Definitely lookin forward to the finished car :thumbsup:

If Nismo ever did sub contract, it would probably be to a much more reputable company like Cosworth-- I believe they do everything in house.

Cosworth's Head gaskets are repackaged Cometic, There Rods are Carrillo A beams & the valves in there heads look a lot like Ferrera.
There pistons are most probably there own as Cosworth has been makeing pistons for over 40 years

Good information, at least the companies they subcontract are not just some backyard operation.
