Nismo?

Just noticed my car has a Nismo part under the hood. Theres no way this can be standard. Its got Nissan performance written on it. Anyone know why this would be in my Rx7 and what it does?

This is a Japanese Type R1 by the way.

If you look at the Hyper Rev magazines, you will notice that there is a rotary clock w/ "Nismo" on it.

HAHA! that is great! i needed a good laugh.

maybe someone should ask him why he has a "FLUX CAPACITOR" for an oil cap. forget 30RWHP... that thing is worth at least an 8 second 1/4 mile!
