From what I have read in the past, the synchro for 1st and 2nd gear is weaker than the other synchros. However, I did have to have my CSC replaced last year at a whopping $750 (it would of cost even more at the dealership). However, my synchros were working fine then. I just hope these replacements last.
Hey Unisyn
I'm in your area, Lake Mary, who (if you don't mind me asking) did your CSC work?
Mine is fine but I'd like to know my options.

Thanks!

Hey there, Fountainhead. I actually had it done at the Formula Tire & Auto (Firestone) on 434 near Wekiva Springs Lane back in 2015 when I was new to the area and it was only 3/4 mile from where I live. They did a good job, but it's pricey, meaning around $700. This last August I had the entire engine swapped with all new gaskets, water pump, spark plugs etc. and a Z1 Street Performance clutch put in at Z-Tech on 17-92 in Longwood ($5300! ouch). I would probably go to Z-Tech since he has been working on Z' since the early '80s, but they cost a little more due to quality of work. I'm happy with everything so far, but a couple of times it felt like the CSC was going out again, but it cleared up. I also had the transmission and rear differential replaced at the Nissan dealer a couple years ago right before the extended warranty ran out. That would of been a $6K job!
