I need some help with this, we can't understand why we don't seem to have any power increase (the car seems slower)
I installed the Nismo Cold air intake
NISMO Headers, NISMO Cat-Back Exhaust System we left the stock cat's
its a 04 roadster w/auto trans (sounds great)
some surging around 6k
loss of torke

from what my suppliers tell me, Nissan is the only source for these (they deal with corporate, not the dealership). I enquired about a whole host of the GT parts, and each one got a big fat "nope, sorry" without secruing a VIN. This is typical among the japanese, and its a matter of time before I have a VIN to be able to order parts through. We have gone through this with the 22B Impreza in the past, as well as a couple other limited run cars.

It is important to keep it exclusive, otherwise no one will by the S-Tune GT. The list price for the Nismo S-Tune GT is 6.5 million yen, while the top of the line Fairlady Z version ST is only 3.9 million yen. If the body kit is available to anyone, there will be a many wanna be S-Tune GT's on the road. No one will be willing to pay 2.6 million yen more for something that can be seen all over the place.
As of the end of May, only 5 Fairlady Z type E (long nose) and 12 Nismo S-Tune GT were sold. 8 more S-Tune GT are in negotiation, and Type E is no longer offered.

Its not something that is going to just be out there. Screw nismo if someone makes knock offs then count me in.
IMO Nismo has done nothing but shaft the us market. But we won't go there again.
