Nissan factory tuners, Cobra N+ is known for amazing customizations for both the Nissan 370Z and GT-R. Their concept for the 370Z sports car does not have any major engine modifications or tuning, however the aerodynamic and handling improvements were enough to satisfy customers. Cobra N+ has manufactured lightweight wheels with six double spokes measuring 19×9 in the front, and 19×10 in the rear. Trying to keep the overall weight of the vehicle to a minimum, the lightweight rims are linked to an aftermarket spring kit that lowers the car by 30 mm. There is an optional coilover suspension setup available that adjusts the ride height between 20 and 40 mm. Aerodynamic improvements for the Nissan 370Z are a diffuser custom fitted into the factory rear bumper, carbon fiber front spoiler, and custom cutouts in the rear to accommodate the larger Cobra N+ sport exhaust system.

The all new Abflug Nissan GT-R has received its latest aerodynamic package from the Japanese car tuning company Abflug. There are several performance and exterior styling kits already available for the Nissan GT-R. Abflug used their taste to create something unique that includes a new front lip spoiler, side skirts, carbon fiber rear wing and bumper, with an attached diffuser. This definitely will not be the last of the modifications that are released for the Nissan GT-R, as it is expected to be a top selling sports car because of the price and performance it has to offer.

Car styling company Impul has redesigned the Nissan 370Z body kit and it looks extremely aggressive. The new aerodynamic body kit is a little over the top and exaggerated in my opinion, especially in the rear. It features large air ducts in the front and rear that basically add zero performance improvements and are strictly for looks. Well…I guess the front bumper and lip combo doesn’t look too bad, there’s just too many Nissan 370Z out there now. The package is named the 934S v2.0 and is available now from Impul or their dealers around the country.

Nissan has launched their Nismo brand upgrade for the brand new Nissan GT-R which will boost the power numbers significantly. The upgrade will tune the engine and add transmission management software, but the only way to get the package is by renting it. The ECU upgrade and TCM start out at a two year price of 294,000 yen ($3,090 USD) and if you wish to continue to have it installed after the two years, there is a $330 yearly rent fee. What’s convenient about this modification is that it is a standalone program which can be installed easily on any GT-R model and also the SpecV.
