Cobra N+ Sports Up the new Nissan 370Z Coupe

German tuning firm Cobra Technology and Lifestyle (also known as Cobra N+) has released a new sport package for buyers of the Nissan 370Z Coupe. The carbon fiber aero kit for the Japanese coupe includes a front spoiler, exterior mirror covers and a rear diffuser insert with openings for the two 120-mm tailpipes of the Cobra N+ sport exhaust system. Interior upgrades are limited to carbon-fiber-look scuff plates.

To improve handling, the tuner developed a custom-tailored tire-wheel combination with lightweight 19-inch rims wrapped in 255/40 ZR 19 high-performance tires up front and 285/35 ZR 19 tires at the back. The kit also includes new sport springs that lower the 370Z's ride height by around 30mm and a sport suspension with adjustable damper rates.

For a more sonorous experience from the 3.7-liter V6 engine, Cobra N+ offers a sport muffler with an electronically controlled flap which is said to allow the driver to select an exhaust note ranging from "discrete to pure racing sound" at the push of the button.

The kit does not include any sort of upgrades for the 370Z's engine.
