Jul 15th, 2009 by Thomas Rosquin
Everything about the New Nissan Nismo 37OZ is better, faster, and more superior. It’s really amazing how different this car is from its predecessor, the Nismo 35OZ. The interior, exterior, and performance have all been modified to the highest degree. The second generation Nismo Z offers unique performance and design qualities that only driving and sports car enthusiasts look for. It is every enthusiast’s dream. The Nismo 37OZ was developed by Nissan’s Specialty Vehicle Group in Japan; Nismo.
The Nismo 370Z gets an eye catching aerodynamic body kit. The suspension is sport tuned. It’s equipped with a standard 3.7Liter DOHC V6 engine that includes a close-ratio six speed transmission with a SynchroRev-Match System. The Variable Valves and Lift Control in the engine produce 18 more horsepower for a total of 350 HP and 276lb.-ft. of torque. The new Z also has a dual exhaust system.
To optimize a true performance machine, the 37OZ is offered with only one transmission and is the world’s first synchronized downshift rev matching manual transmission. The high performance car also features a four wheel independent suspension, a reinforced strut tower brace (for enhanced body rigidity), and a pair of performance body dampers to manage vibrations from the road. The tuned suspension includes special tuned springs, shock absorbers and stabilizer bars.
The 2010 Nissan Nismo 370Z also has wider five spoke 19inch RAYS forged aluminum-alloy wheels that are mounted with Yokohama ADVAN Sport Y-rated high-performance tires, and new Nissan Sport Brakes including a Limited-Slip Differential.
Besides its outstanding performance to draw enthusiasts in, the Nismo stands out from the crowd with its dramatic exterior and interior styling. Body modifications include extended front nose and an integrated spoiler that increases downforce.
On the inside, the Z includes Nismo emblems, black and red fabric with red stitching, a special tachometer, leather wrapped steering wheel and shift knob and aluminum trimmed pedals. Nissan announced pricing for the new Nismo 37OZ to be around $39,130.
