I believe so cept IIRC the Nismo Z's come with the Nismo GT shift ****. Correct me if I'm wrong... If you are planning to switch ***** look over the DIY carefully cuz if done wrong could result in a very big headache... G/L

the difficulty seems to vary, some have a hellacious time getting their stock **** off and destroy it in the process, but mine and many others come off with very little trouble. There are plenty of threads on just how-to if you search.

on average the older models are much more difficult to take off. my 07 as well as many other recent year Z's can pretty much hand twist off the stock shift ****. some 03's are so hard that the stock shift **** is demolished. and all stock shift ***** are the same with the exception of nismo

easy answer is yes it's the same... I was one of the many that destroyed the stock **** while putting on my nismo.
