Going for a spin in the 2024 Nissan Z Nismo showed how it’s a better track animal than the Z Performance.
in the right direction. It’s my first time driving Sonoma Raceway and all the hype couldn’t have prepared me for the quick elevation changes and blind turns of a track carved out of a hill.Performance model, we take lead-follow laps in the new track-ready Z Nismo. The first turn banks hard left and climbs as vertical as any track grade I’ve been on. Then it’s a hard right 90-degree turn into a quick descent and switchback.
Outside of the track, carving through the twisties cresting over wine country, I needed to double click the paddle shifters sourced from the GT-R to get the right gear going into and then exiting a hairpin. It required active and predictive flicks to have the optimal torque, which peaks as early as 2,000 rpm.
I could have trusted the brakes more and rode them harder. The Nismo features larger brakes at 15.0 inches up front and 13.8 inches at the rear, with 4-piston front and 2-piston rear aluminum calipers, the better to arrest the staggered Rays 19-inch alloy wheels . Other performance cars have better braking systems, but with four groups taking four hard laps with about 20-30 minutes between group sessions, the smell of burbling brake fluid or the sight of reddened rotors was mostly absent.
