Default From Evo X MR to 350z nismo

Hey all I have gone from evolutionm to this forum. I guess this is a wierd switch, but i must say it is a much more exciting car. I had the evo x mr with the dual clutch and it was absolutely horrible. It always made these noises and finally one day we were tuning it and i said, " the hell with this car and went and traded it for a nismo that DAY!" Haha, i am kinda a sporadic guy. But I loved the evo x just hated the tranny. I am going to have to get used to rear wheel drive again. My question is this, does the nismo already have the street spec nismo parts? Also when in neutral with the clutch engaged (pedal not down) it makes a kinda funny noise almost like there is a small rock or peice of metal in there. I have heard this is normal, but was just wondering if this is true. My number is 936.

Also, when in neutral with the clutch, I pull the parking brake. Then, I take out my smartphone and load up m.my350z.com and log onto the mobile site. From there, I search all appropriate forums for the information that I'm curious about BEFORE I ask a question that has been asked a thousand times already.

...is what you were going to finish typing before you posted accidentally, right?

Welcome to the forum! The Nismo is the most fun on the track so hurry up and get it out there haha. By the way you'll learn to ignore quite a few people on this site.

Better save up for turbo because your not going to get gains like you do with a evo. Just a FYI.

I would of but i literally hated the tranny, if I would of gotten the gsr I probably would of kept it and saved up for the nismo for the track and used the evo as a daily driver, but I plan on getting a evo 6 in a year and making it a daily driver/dragster.
