NISMO Z
Anyone heard anything from their dealer r.e confirmed Nismo orders yet?
With media stating info that around 50 went to existing order transfers and the rest to the public on Thursday I'd say Nissan know who's got what and are working on disseminating that info to the dealers
I have contracts in place, usual disclaimers about not guaranteeing a car, no real other news to share.

However, and take this with a grain of salt, as they are special build slots, it is likely that their timelines may not be as impacted.

Like the 10th anniversary BRZ's which were delivered in front of some longer running orders. I also think this is probably why existing customers had a chance to upgrade.

Either way I don't mind waiting.. :)

They’ll give me a free first service at 1000km, but I don’t have another Nissan
the 1000km isnt a real service. They just check some stuff. They will do an oil change if you insist.

My monthly check-in ... glad to see a Z finally arrived for some of you!

By the way, is the dealership having the car covered with a sheet/bow for customer pickup an Australian thing? (I've noticed it in several photos.)
Some are covered on delivery, mine just had a red bow on top

Anyone thought about upgrading the sway bars, Z1 have their own but you can also get the Nismo front and rear for $100 less

I've thought about it, it's always been such a high impact mod on cars I've owned previously, it's worth considering. The thing that has me unsure now is my MCA coilovers specifically say not to change the sway bars as the coils are developed for the stock ones, which is something I've not heard before with regard to coilovers.

Having said that, normal driving with the MCAs in produces hardly any bodyroll. Maybe they know what they are talking about...

Hey guys - long time lurker, first time poster.
Looks like a lot of deliveries on here in the last month.
Chiming in with my order placed in July 2022 for a Blue Auto (SA). Still no updates from dealer beyond "Nissan isn't telling us anything."
Feeling much of the same sentiment around here and not keen on being hit with '24 pricing if Nissan can't get it together.
