Nissan Nismo 370Z @ Willow Springs

[n4w4k1]

so much wheel spin, lol



[onetwothreefour721]

This is some good driving in a brutal sports car like this.

[93Gatorchomp93]

How tight is the suspension as a daily driving car? Is it bearable for long distances!

[toasterder]

eh, its oversteer, not understeer

[stephencarlmurphy1]

STEPHEN CARL MURPHY CO.

[SuperColossal33]

great looking car, but with the way its handling hear i can hardly believe the nurbugring numbers nissan posted are accurate.

[2889joeracer]

understeer going in the corner screws this all up. car can be tuned better

[SuperColossal33]

looks like oversteer to me

[2889joeracer]

looks like understeer going in which causes the understeer coming off. watch it again at 50 seconds in you can clearly see hard understeer which turns to understeer

[SuperColossal33]

yeah you're right, i just saw the first few seconds and the rear end swinging around and thought it was oversteer.

Dunno why the car is having that problem, maybe because the wheelbase was shortened so much. I can tell you it is not fun at all to drive a car that tends to understeer, its not very predictable and its a lot harder to correct than oversteer, which you can predict and have fun with :)

[2889joeracer]

yea its probably tuned more for the average street driver not a good driver. the understeer is better for many people who just have money to blow

[rubbadude]

alright I really want to know, I'm new with cars with only general knowledge but here goes, which would win (all stock):

370z nismo v. Evo X

and

370z nismo v. Evo 8

I get a bunch of people saying evo (both) hands down but a few people say nismo, anyone know for sure? ALL STOCK, NO MODS WHATSOEVER XD

[daniyal08]

370z nismo for sure.. The people who say evo is because they haven't really seen what the nismo can do as its new. also a stock 370z non nismo can beat a evo x, stock for stock that is.

they think the 370z is like the 350z but infact the 370z is way faster then a 350z.

370z(non nismo) 0-60 4.7seconds, 1/4mile 13.3 sec @ 105.7 mph

evo x gsr 0-60 5.4, 1/4mile 14.0 sec @ 96.9 mph

You can find these information on motortrend website.

[LLCoolPass]

well since youre not stupid , you would be talking about race tracks right? since these are not drag cars. so, I would think the z would be better at most with turns because the torque is there all the time, but the evo would win in inclement weather

[KamilEvolution]

What kind of race, from a digg?

And, what happened to the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX (9)? :-P

[rubbadude]

oh shit how did I miss that XD I dunno I guess it'd really be between drags you know, if not then around the corners and stuff lolz

[zenom88]

is that stock 370z ? no ?

wat the difference compared to stock one ?

[112namrepus]

350hp Vs 334 and a different suspension, better brakes, oil cooler NISMO body kit, and NISMO interior.

[usageee]

I must be one of the few that think Nissan did an excellent job with the aesthetic design.

[turmat01]

no, it does look gorgeous

[amer1cancer2753]

I would still rather take the Nissan 350z Nismo. I want a car that draws attention to itself and the 370z Nismo is just not doing it for me.

[polisanx]

the only thing that i dint like was the front bumper...

[LotsOfPaypa]

This is what the girlfriend of a nissan gtr owner would drive lmfao

[831Garcia]

drives for a man.

looks for a girl...

[dtgreen1992]

Looks for a girl?

You're fucking gay. No lie.

The 370's a hardass of a car.

[Quik25c2]

Look really fun to drive.

[FILIPINOCD]

Everytime I look at it it gets better!

[Vespahipcat]

ZZZzzzzzz

[torquemenistan]

sounds abit like the legendary skyline gtr(r34)

[Weazell]

Gee, I can't imagine why

[torquemenistan]

hmmm...?..same company ..same roots?...

[youpachecotube]

cuando estara en mexico a la venta este auto?

[turbo311]

kinda...mellow

[tigercrap]

370's Front end is bland and rather lame for a sports car at that price. The smaller body is great, like the BMW 1 series. Overall, a better car than the 350Z. If you want a cheap Porsche, the 370 is the one to drive....although it looks too heavy for some reason. Anyway, who buys a car based on TRACK performance? It's ridiculous since everyone drives on a public road-with the exception of a few...

[captain31893]

wow you sound like you're not from USA but take that as a compliment but i have to agree to what you just said

[euro944t]

Makes the RX-8 feel like junk when you drive both. Although the 370z was $40k , RX8 was only $30k, add $10k SC and pipes, ect.

The 370z with alcantara, met sky blue was what I was in.

[euro944t]

370z compares to Z4 TT or M coupe BMW.

Bad comparison to 135i has rear seats and trunk, sits higher, etc. but felt faster than 335i, but 1 is very dodgy @highway speed like a Z4 that sits too high

[Kraziiboi]

the 350z and 370 is compared to the G35S from infinity..

[euro944t]

only they are same manufacturer, is like comparing Jetta vs A4 Audi.

[vk45dett]

ur're fukin retarded

[Kraziiboi]

Actually your the dumb shit. They basically look the same. Price range is the same. HP is Similar. Dimensions are similar. The Infinity is a bit wider heavy for a better day to day use, but the nissan is more performance and better handling. Where the fuck do u come from ass wipe.

[euro944t]

135i seats 4.

Can we find more 4 seat cars to compare w/ a 2 seat sportcar ?

How about a IF Lexus or M3 ?

How queer , just pull up a Z4 TT or M Z4 coupe and comare apple to apples.

[euro944t]

Like a Z4 with 20" oversize tires, the 135i feels oversensitive, light & tippy at speed.

Stock height is fine on Z4, imagine it's lifted and saw on wheel @100mph, being on 2 tires is not fun on highway in 135i

[2muchskill4you]

looks like it hit bambi on the way there

[sspope]

Why did they remove the teeth?

[ambientflier]

Because they were silly.

[xml200]

Renault is inferior french trash.

[sspope]

Your brain is inferior.

[112namrepus]

My next car. But I want a color.

[zinc4life]

what bullshit, the whole car is built by nissan, its just that renault has48% shares in the nissan company. and renault has the right to put its openion to its desings thats why nissans look bulky now. ex- the cefiro, skyline, primera. they look as if they were filled with air up to bursting point.

[Scorp969]

wtf?! are u on something?! even though renault 48% share holder allows them to have very little to no influence to model design. nissan is not there subsidiary. omg think before you talk...

[Ahya728]

Z are all heavy to drive. but with it's stiffer suspension and traction control on, it'll do good in corners,

[2fast4all]

So the cars been out for a while, why havent I seen them on the streets yet? I see more G37's and good ol 350's but not this one.

[Terre2099]

well they have been out for about 3months (i may be wrong) but there are several out here in my area =]..cool cars i must say

[112namrepus]

NISMO 370's? I thought the Nismo was not yet for sale? I want one but the dealership only had the sport touring 370Z.

[inhuman216]

this is for testing

[112namrepus]

Oh I see.

[Terre2099]

i'm sorry my comment was misleading, i meant the regular 370's . not the Nismo version

[r1a9y]

i wish he had drifted when coming down the track @ abt 1:23

[againat5]

Hm i like the 350z nismos body style a bit more but the 370z nismos 350 hp is very tempting. But if i had to pick out of those two I would get the 350z nismo just cause it looks more like the gt nismo z. Well aside from that its cheaper then the 370z nismo. But ill find out how good this 370 nismo compares to my 350 nismo.

[Ashez141]

this car is just same like 350z... it's better just to buy the 350z and buy the bodykits from impul.

[coolerdude44]

not at all

[quuaa1]

This engine is Nissan's, not from Renault.

[kamikaze27191]

its built by renault

[quuaa1]

the new 3.7L is?

[kamikaze27191]

yeah

so was the 3.5L

its nissan's english, just built by renault

[kamikaze27191]

sorry, im ment nissan's engine

[sspope]

It's the same engine. They just made it a little bigger.

[Alex050796]

are you stupid? same engine but bigger? are you serious? there is a reason for calling the 350z a 350z and a 370z a 370z. the 350z has a 3.5 liter v6 engine while the 370z has a 3.7 liter v6 engine. are you stupid? take off your comment sspope.

[sspope]

Are you a faggot? What exactly are you trying to imply with your comment? Are you saying that 3.5 is bigger than 3.7?

[p753159]

370z is much different than 350z, you can't just buy a bodykit on a 350z to make it look-a-like

bet your those faggots who suggest buying a black grill to make lancer look like an evolution when it's nowhere even close to being similar

[94XJ]

LOL

What if I add a wing to the Lancer?

[linkdarkshadow]

Need more sideways action.

[gmax876]

He's trying, but needs to toss it a bit more aggressively. He drifts like I do, power on out of tight turns....

[nitroboyn2o]

the awesome thing bout this car is it drifts and grips like none other, nissan and nismo beast at engineering

[didderson]

Shits weak. The driving I mean. Can't wait to see Clarkson get a hold of this one! Nismo ftw.

I'd rather build a regular Z with other parts though. Just my thoughts.

[BlackTransAmdude]

sweet car i like the driving footage

[xLethalLlamax]

i fucking hate people who do nothing but call import cars ricers all day

[JBlade007]

2nd that bro

[909Monopoly]

Agreed. Only ricers are cars that are for looks, not for performance

[xLethalLlamax]

and this car is mostly performance

[jex9]

The ricey lookin spoiler ruins the shape for me.

[RangerMH]

I test drove this car 5 days ago, I was impressed with the performance over last year's Nismo edition. The ride was stiffer, and steering felt more responsive. However, I was very disappointed with how the car was put together. You can move the body kit by tapping it, it bends like very cheap plastic, and the wing was flexing with the wind when you're doing about 70+ MPH. It seemed stable, but I don't think the car is for me. I'll be test driving a Shelby next, if that doesn't work out, Camaro.

[JBlade007]

that was the 350 not the 370 try a gt 370 its better than the nismo ur paying more for a stupid body kit n overzised wing

[omegaphoenix6]

the nismo has 350hp also....

[nugget254]

nice can i have one?

[seprehuoyeviglli]

Of cours!

There is a like what, $40,000 fee though,:(

[canihaztenors]

beautiful. i think the nismo body kit really makes it look a lot better.

[axiomsolo]

what a great car. im not to fond of that back wing though but its functional so its all good!

[ajp42109]

that car is da bomb! but not next to gtr though. that thing is the real best car ever in society!

[Jzsleepyz]

if your talking about the newer versions gtrs not really lol but everone has there likes and dislikes

[axiomsolo]

its all good though cause they are both made by Nissan! So they are both awesome! If i had to choose between them id totally take the GT-R as im sure you would aswell.

[xPsYcHoSyS]

knock off/japenese attempt at porsche's 911 gt3, (just the exterior anyway) LOL

i liked the previous generation's design over this one

[pyrokidd911]

yea i like the previous gens too but i dont think they took the body off the gt3

[Z3RO0RD1E]

Beautiful car, but I would have thought NISMO could have come up with a better front end than that.

[shampoojoe]

not to bad  i still like the G37 or the GTR

[bigtymer9778]

do you really think it was fair comparing this to a GTR in your mind?

[DARKRIGUE]

sexy.

[ahmadmz3]

I don't like the nismo , it's not a big upgrade over the normal 370z .

[112namrepus]

Does it cost THAT much more?

No!

[ahmadmz3]

Man its only 18 hp more !! so would you give up comfort for THAT ? also you can get this much hps from air intake !! (anyway thats my opinion) .

[112namrepus]

So you start 18hp ahead. THEN do air intake, exhaust ect. I like the looks too.

[gunzkevin]

Lies, don't waste comment space with your pointless comment and a false one at that.

[uae6066]

nice
