N1 Blocks measure out to be the same as standard
Nismo R Blocks measure out to be the same as standard

Nismo Oil Pump costs more then a billet pump and still has powdered metal gears that shatter - thus fixing none of the serious issues.
Dude... your very first post talks about Nissan GTR tension rods for $200 vs Nismo tension rods for $400.

Then I broke down the pricing, showing that the cost spread for GT-R tension rods was closer to ~$50 instead of $200 as you suggested.

That's all. If you used the wrong parts as your price basis then that's fine, we can end here. If not and GTS-T and GT-R are interchangeable parts, then the part numbers tell a different story.

I don't care about any other parts you listed because I have zero first hand experience with them.
