09' Blue (Not new but new to me!)
 

Purchased my 2009 Z in January with about 75k on the odometer.
The CSC went out within 1k miles of me purchasing it!:mad:
This forum helped me prepare for this very occurrence by simply having the information available about the CSC issues that others have faced so this was not entirely unexpected! (I just wish it had waited a little longer to crap out on me haha)
After I determined the CSC was going out I called ZSpeed, spoke to Joe
(shoutout to Joe on here thanks for all your help in choosing my parts!) and chose to go ahead and replace flywheel, clutch, MSC, and CSC since I really wasn't sure how old the clutch was and I would have the trans out anyway i thought why not!
Opted for a stage 1 clutch kit with a lightweight fly and the CMAC CSC delete kit. (Which is absolutely awesome and much higher quality than the crap Nissan used)
After upgrades installed the car drives wonderfully and I couldn't be happier with it honestly. I was torn between a Vette and the Z when looking for cars. I feel as though I made the right decision even with the CSC issue!

Thanks for reading guys this is my first post so if y'all have any suggestions or post etiquette pointers please let me know! And thanks for having me on the forum!

Welcome! Sucks you had issues right away but good job on just handling everything while you had the trans out.

Thanks! Yeah I'm actually kinda glad it happened so soon since this gave me a good reason to have the mod bug right off the bat haha.

Congrats on the purchase. Im actually looking into selling my 11 G37S for an 09-10 370z with sport package. But of course as you did, I've been reading about the CSC and sometimes faulty starter ? Anyways, how much did the entire repair cost you just in case I get an 09 and have the money just in case. Thanks.

Congrats...Glad it worked out and nice with the Monterrey Blue!!

Just pull the steering lock fuse.

OP you should do this as well if you haven't already

Congrats and welcome!

Welcome :hello:, looking good!

Congratulations and welcome. :tiphat:

I am new too. I bought mine in Feb. Congrats on your new purchase. I hope you enjoy it and that nothing else wrong pops up.

Wow that blue looks nice. Congrats and welcome. Glad you got it worked out.

I'll get it done after work thanks man!

The full kit I purchased included a lot of parts that aren't necessary to fix the CSC issue (clutch plate flywheel etc.) that being said the kit cost me a little under $1,400(USD).

welcome to the club and the modifications begin
remember to drive it hard then harder

Congrats and welcome!
