anyone tell me.

Nismo just means Nissan Motorsport !!

Its just like what TRD is to Toyota :)

Titanium key came with the earlier z's, they stopped making them after a while to drop production cost... you can buy copies of them now for around 20 quid.

And the Titanium key is a special lightweight metal key for the 300zx. Titanium is used a lot in the aircraft industry for its strength and lightness.

I suspect it was more so for strength than the few grams of weight saved :pinch:

 

Well and the fact they look flippin awesome.

as above nismo is nissan motor sports like amg for merc etc. i think the titanium was more a sales gimick than anything else.

Was this car off ebay in Cheltenham?
