They didn't tell me what is wrong with the engine, they said components and that it needed to be reassemble but engines are not rebuilt (according to them). It it not the valves, i can 100% guarantee that. I dont know that the money shift is.

Having said that, I am not going to start arguing about my qualification for driving the car. I started driving stick shift when I was 9 in a blue nissan datsun. I came to the US at the age of 10, didn't drive stick again until i was 19 and that was only for a week. I thought I mastered it so i stopped. I've been driving my Z now for 4 years. Stop acting like an elitist, as if driving stick took some type of special skill. There is a learning curve but overtime it's easy. It becomes second nature.


PS: I never paid out of pocket for the transmission. somebody asked about that i think

You are absolutely delusional if you think you mastered driving a manual in one week.

Before you spout off about how good your driving skills after you killed a clutch, transmission, and engine in less than 90K miles, go find a real driving instructor (like at an HPDE) and see what they think about your skills
