Prominent 370Z Issues?

Exhaust · 11-11-2015, 06:00 PM

Nothing major, csc, oil temp (if your tracking never gone into limp mode around town), fuel starvation on hard G's below half tank (there is an upgrade for this.), Shitty rear visibility, you develop chronic speeding habits, loud cabin noise, no trunk space, no practicality, blinkers arent loud enough causing you to drive with them on all the time, most z drivers wont wave back at you if you wave at them, too much fun, attracts boy racers, entices people to rev at you at stop lights, a little tough to drive in the rain, body roll needs to be corrected with front sway, and last but not least but I think this is important its just "a little v6".

Edit: Tl;dr auto tranny is bullet proof it will need a tranny cooler if you want to SC or FI.

I'd say the CSC has the potential to be major. Depends on where it happens to you. And it will happen. Dun dun dun...

I hate to be the newb asking something probably easily recognizable but, what is "csc?"

I did a search by thread title by all sub sections and no results.

***Never mind*** just found it at the top of General. I was planning for an auto anyway.

The site's search really sucks, IMNSHO. I prefer to go to one of the major web search engines and add "site:the370z.com" to my search string. Eg:
CSC site:the370z.com

370z top of the list Issues

Fuel Starvation: Turning right for a long time runs the fuel pump dry.
CSC: The clutch mechanicals WILL eventually fail and leave you stranded.
Steering Lock: This anti-theft feature sometimes freaks out and leaves the car unable to start.
Oil Temperature: The 370z motor likes to run hot. So much so, that they built in safe modes which kick in to limit RPM @ certain temperatures over ~250.
Rear Hatch: Pushing the button doesn't always pop the trunk.
Alignment: Camber / caster are not adjustable stock. Must purchase aftermarket components.
