My Z is dead 60 miles after a clutch replacement

Sorry to hear about this. With the various mods and a probable faulty install, it would be easy for the dealership who installed to blame everything else but the install (trust issues I know). In the end, it would cost you anyway so might as well bring it to a more renowned and proven dealership if you so choose. Try Fontana Nissan. Quite a tow trip but might be well worth it. Good luck and keep the rest of us posted so we can all learn.

Anyone know if you would need to remove the lines from the oil cooler to fix a leak in the rear main seal (which requires dropping the tranny)? Not sure if they had to drop the engine too (which I assume would require it).

The oil lines connect to where the oil filter is
