Finally got a purchase survey and made sure to note this issue there, as well.

My understanding is that as the fluid gets dirty, the dirt particles get past the seals on the CMC and/or CSC, allowing air pockets into the clutch system. This is the reason that some people just...

I actually asked the guy unknowingly for the number of cars that had this replaced under warranty when I was on the phone with nissan some time ago. He said they didn't keep records of warranty...

Best description- they insulated only the lower portion of the tubing that leads from the Master Cylinder to the Slave. This leaves the upper area of the line open to heat sink. Unfortunately there's...

You think Nissan learned about their faulty CSCs from the later model 350z. I don't comprehend the reasoning behind "continuing a recalled known-problem" to the 370z. That's what gets me.

Take your time when choosing. Research as much as possible; what are you future goals/mods for car, driving habits (daily driver, weekend warrior or track only). Also consider what kind of traffic...

OK, bare with me, I'm a "driver" not so much a "gear head" so my observations are from that perspective. ACT HDSS Clutch, needs 300-500 miles breakin (not just highway miles; stop n go daily driving...

You could go many miles before CSC fails. It's really a personal decision. I had no plan, my CSC failed . Luckily I had Triple AAA Tow coverage. I never had problems with clutch plate/pressure plate....

I've never burnt a clutch out in my life (I'd estimate 350-400k miles over four different cars). My CSC broke at 1,200 miles on the car so I'm not in that range at all. I had never even driven the...
