Aluminium suspension?

Just spent some time at the Nissan site looking at the 350Z, and noticed that it uses aluminium suspension components. Seems like a very attractive option.

The MINI is steel. Correct?

How much extra would it cost to do in aluminium? If I was going to spend $1000 on upgrading how the car contacts and interacts with the road, I'd prefer to spend it on invisible upgrades like lightening the suspension components.

Has anyone looked into these types of modifications?
