Looking into Purchasing a 370z Nismo

cv129

Just to summarize what others have said...

Steering wheel lock: if the car has one, just pull the fuse and it won't ever give you problem.

CMC: replace with RJM CMC

CSC: replace with ZSpeed CMAK (no manual adjustment needed) or Z1 CSC Elim kit (manual adjustments needed over time). ZSpeed also makes replacement heavy duty CSC, but ZMAK is better.

Note: just be gentle on the clutch and the stock CMC and CSC will hold up much longer. Do budget for aftermarket replacement, however.

Diff bushing: OEM is liquid filled rubber bushing, it enhances comfort at the expense of life span, you will see dark fluid and stains when the bushing fail. Plenty of aftermarket options. This won't get you stranded, however.

Front suspension: for Nismo trim, make sure the front spring spacer has been removed, it's a gigantic piece of rubber that's about the length of the front spring, preventing the spring from compressing, used to keep the front ride height up to prevent scraping prior to delivering to customers. Problem is many dealerships forgot to remove them, and new owners drive them thinking the bone crushing ride is normal.

The Z is a relatively simple car.
