05 Frontier: SE v. Nismo?

with the 6-speed 4x4, in the SE if you want the limited-slip, it requires adding both the power package and the alloy wheel option ... so total upgrade cost is $1350 ...

this puts it only $1200 below the Nismo.

So with the Nismo you get the skid plates, locking rear diff, fog lights, bigger tires, and better shocks.

Seems like a no-brainer to go with the Nismo if you want a 4x4.

The stiff ride on the road will get annoying.

in terms of ride stiffness, wouldn't the only difference be the Bilstein shocks?

just bought a Nismo CC - I pretty much came to the same conclusion you did.. but I didn't buy the 4wd - the 2wd also has limited slip - works fine for me..

The ride is a bit stiff, but you don't own a truck for it's ride - do you ?
