So did a bunch of econoboxes but you fail to mention those

Those passed the Tow truck too. Even on a tow truck the Z "looks good....". It looked good both times the CSC had to be replaced. Wised up this time though, went with a HD CSC from ZSpeed instead of replacing it again with piece of sh*t Nissan OEM CSC

Dude, your CSC failed twice? So you had it fail, you replaced it, then failed again, you replaced it, then the 3rd time you got the one from Zspeed? Am I understanding this correctly?

The previous owner replaced it. When I bought car it came with receipts from Nissan dealership. It busted on them at about 40,000 miles ( I'll have to check receipt for actual mileage)

Then it broke on me just a little past 60,000 miles. Crazy too how it happened; I just started car, let it warmup & high idle drop, put in gear went about 40-50 feet at 5-10mph in complex garage. Then pedal just dropped.

Honestly I was totally unaware of any CSC issues with 370z. In fact, when I was looking at the car (prior to purchase) the previous owner nonchalantly mentioned replacing CSC do to it having "a leak" . Me being naive, thought nothing of it. I thought "a leak? that's no big deal"... How wrong I was!
