![Question](https://my350z.com/forum/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I have seen some websites saying the Nismo is slower in quarter mile then a original 350z, it said it probibly had to do with the extra downforce. Is that true? Can the Nismo even hit a top speed of 160 like a original? It also said that the base 350z pulled off a better skidpad??

I understand the Nismo has amazing handling, but everyday aggresive driving would you notice the difference?(besides the stiffness) I was wondering if you put a 2007 350z base vs a Nismo highway wise would the extra downforce cause a big difference? Would the base pull far off or would the extra downforce be as equal as shifting difference?

Ok well i dont have a nismo Z lol. I'm trying to get one from the auction, i have never seen one in person, and from the auction i don't get to drive it just buy it, i just recently sold my 2006, and i would love to get the Nismo Z. My friend has a 2007 base and i would hate to have a sporter looking Z but lose in straight line performance, without mods that is.
