Does the 370z wind having the same issues as the G35/350z as far as the trans and the synchros and such?

"Notchiness" is about the same. As I said earlier, I had an '04, so the throw on the G35 was pretty beefy (they lightened the shift effort on '05 and later), so the 370Z's a tad lighter to row. What year is yours?

The feel is very much the same, I'd admit. Whether that means you'll experience the same issues, not sure. Being on this forum, there are many '09 owners with 20K+ miles on their cars, and I haven't heard any postings of worn synchros on this Z's transmission.
