NISMO has been a huge part of Nissan since it was introduced. They make versions of cars that are very special from them being handbuilt to how exclusive they are.

Not just any model from Nissan gets the NISMO treatment, very few cars have gotten standalone NISMO models while many other cars have NISMO parts produced for them. The current lineup of NISMO cars is the Nissan Sentra, 370Z, GTR, Pulsar, Micra and Juke. Some of the past cars that had gotten NISMO versions for consumers are the 350Z, and the Skyline GTR's.

NISMO is also into the professional racing scene and is currently enrolled in Formula E, Super GT GT500, Intercontinental GT Challenge, 24 Hours of Nurburgring and the Super GT GT300 class.

During the 90's NISMO cars were winning races left and right and specifically their R32 and R33 generation of NISMO race cars won over 24 races with some races having multiple podium finishes from the cars.

Overall NISMO has won over 46 races. As of recent though they have no been able to win as much as they had been during the early 90's as many different cars with different capabilities are in these races. Many of their 90's wins were due to how advanced Nissan's cars were at the time and were praised for taking such big leaps during these years.
