Question Quick question about Nismo parts..

Most Nismo parts do fit the 03-07 coupe right? I just got a job at Nissan yesterday and all I'm thinking right now is getting those parts on my car as soon as possible..

Kinda dumb question, but yeah..are the Nismo parts even good for what they're worth? What would be good Nismo parts to actually put onto a G?

I got a 06 5AT, sport suspension, premuim, navi, 19s, spoiler, RAS, and i'm not sure what else..Any suggestions guys? Its about time for me to actually start modding my car when I have a better paying job for once..

Thanks for anyone helping me out!

The NISMO parts you will beable to get from your local dealership that you work for are going to be the US Marketed NISMO S-TUNE and R-TUNE product line.

Cold Air Intake, will direct bolt on as mentioned above
Exhaust will bolt on with an extension and if you cut and weld the tips so they clear the bumper.
Headers fit no problem.
Sway bars no problem

Thats really about it...

Anything else with a NISMO or NISSAN MOTORSPORTS NAME your dealer may not be able to get for you.

Some dealers actually sell to forum members for LESS than the employee discount at dealerships some people work for.

Hmmm..Thanks for the input. I've been wanting to get my car fixed up a little bit ever since I got it. Its in the shop right now from a car accident so I figured while its in the shop, I can install some parts onto it so I don't gotta push back time on it.

I saw some Nismo rims and I'm already tempted to buy them..Ahh..

The NISMO Rims are probably the best quality / weight for the money.


As far as parts that you can get to replace from your accident...

Best thing you can do is get an OEM Sports Bumper. Should be around $235 from your parts department for you. (that is if you can get INFINITI Parts). If you are at a NISSAN dealer, the INFINITI dealer will probably sell it to your dealer for that price.

NISMO S-Tune / R-Tune parts are only Directly available from a NISSAN dealer.

If you want a NISMO front bumper, do not expect to get that from your local dealerships parts department.

+1^ look for eBay seller brinster34, a dealer on the East Coast who sells 18's and 19's NISMO LMGT4's, 100% OEM in the box wheels. They've been selling for anywhere from a low of $1100 (once) a set to $1800. On average they're running ~$1400 a set of 4.



Just picked up a set of 19" for my V35, they're completely mint new OEM wheels - very sweet. 19's run about 21 lbs a wheel, 18's around 17/18 lbs a wheel - that's darn light IMHO given the widths. Offsets and sizing is a perfect match, again OEM sizing. Tires for the 19's run 245/35/19F, 275/35/19R, that's a whole lot of rubber.

*CORRECTION*

you do not have to cut or weld anything on the muffler to get it to fit. It would fit fine with the extension. It would just be tucked about a good inch. not drastic. but IF you want it to sit just like your OEM muffler, then your going to have to have it cut and welded.

Why the obsession with Nismo? Whether you take into account the money factor or not, there are many parts out there that outperform the Nismo stuff.

Name one wheel (other than another set also made by Rays) that "outperforms" NISMO wheels - I saved 5 lbs a corner with 19" NISMO Rays over my stock 18's, even with 275R/245F rubber. No, I did not pay $600/wheel for them, either, I bought them new in the boxes from a dealer, $1300 shipped set of 4.

What's out there that outperforms that, for <= $325/wheel? No one ever said pay full list price for NISMO

NISMO parts have also been well-engineered to fit and work with our cars. In some cases they're rebadge or like the wheels, Rays, but the offset is perfect as is clearance, fit, and compatibility. They're so **** they put a new door sticker for the new wheel size, with a page of instructions how to apply the sticker, lol!

That's why NISMO parts rock.
