I too experienced several problems with my 370's clutch. At 15K the clutch pedal stuck half-way from the floor, I had to pull it up with my foot. Took it straight to the dealer & when I restarted the Z to show them the problem...Clutch worked fine. At 24K..same problem, drove home parked the car. Next morning, Clutch pedal to the floor and stayed there. The dealer towed the car & confirmed he "Thinks" the problem was the master cylinder. 7 day's later (two days ago) I picked up the Z everything working fine and covered by warranty. Ten minutes ago the pedal stuck again half way to the floor and is engaging very close to the floor. So I'm finishing up my work, driving the Z home (If I make it) and calling for a tow truck. Luckily, I haven't had any fried clutch smell in the cab. When I questioned the dealer concerning the clutch issue, he claimed he'd never heard of any problems with the clutch in the 370z. Funny I haven't had many problems finding others with the same problem....
