Nissan has refreshed the Fairlady Z lineup, finally granting the range-topping Nismo trim an enthusiast-focused six-speed manual gearbox with a short-throw shifter and reinforced clutch. The update brings retuned throttle and ignition mapping for the twin-turbo V6, larger monotube dampers for improved ride comfort, and heritage-inspired styling touches. Nismo variants also gain high-performance brakes with two-piece drilled rotors inspired by the GT-R.
