An email I got from NISMO USA. This concerns all you NISMO Edition Z owners:
I haven't personally fit one up on the NISMO Z but we did send a kit to
Japan while the NISMO Z was being developed and as far as I know there
were not any issues. The NISMO Z uses a cross brace near the radiator
support. That would be the only issue I can think of. I am waiting on
some production kits to hit my desk so we can complete an install on the
NISMO Z.

yeah the extra strut rubbing the heat sheilds are the only possible little issue. but i dont really forsee even that judging by the prototype pic
did they give you a ballpark time frame? if its gonna be a few more months or something i dont know how much use im get out of it. i hope they come in anyday now!

if the nismo's look like the prototypes then they are different tubes than the AEM
also doesnt that heat shield look like it would be a little high for the 2nd strut for us nismo Z owners on the AEM?

Give me 2nd strut bar please =) ......off topic, anyone know how the front chin spoiler goes on, kinda cold out, dont feel like taking off the front bumper to find out. Think dealer told me it was 108 dollars. I wanna replace mine, i know its functional and its gone from goin over one or 2 curbs... meaning pulling up over them at stores.

It would be nice if the dual intakes could come with two of the air dam cut outs for the front bumper so we could get cooler air directly to the filters, but with a door to close them off when it rains. . .any idea on such a coupled product or would it have to be custom made. . . .?

FYI - Special pre-order price is officially over.
