Dealership tells me that Nissan recommends changing out the clutch master and slave cylinders. Apparently this was a problem on the 350z but I'm the first one he's seen with the issue on a 370. Nissan says the CSC can leak, is part of the tranny and requires the tranny to be dropped for replacement. The new part is not an up'reved version, but apparently the problem goes away once things are switched out.

Sounds like a quality issue to me.

I still think I boiled the fluid though, had 260 on the oil temp w/34 row cooler up front with >100 degrees outside on the track. Will be insulating the line and switching to good DOT 4 after the swap.
