Um, is that what you paid for the car? or did you mean the part and miss a decimal place?

Its the whole control unit. Dont go to nissan dealership unless u have warranty.

woah, i dont know the exact deal wat's going on with your car, but the part itself (even at the local stealership) is about $750 and labor 1hr to install (it physically only costs $500 shipped from nissan parts stores and about 15min to install). i doubt you need the entire control unit.

Total should be about 850 + tax.

A link was posted where you could buy it for I think $495 and it is a very easy install. A DIY has been posted in the other postings about this showing how easy it is to do yourself. Sorry for posting against what this is supposed to be about but if you are out of warranty it will cost you half of what the dealership will charge.

Maybe it was some one here at the 370Z.com. Or most likely a Mustang owner.

Just feel lucky you folks live in the USA. That part costs $1001.53 from Nissan here in Canada.

That, and the Canadian dollar is at par value now... wow!

The hidden cost of health care perhaps.

How has a 30%+ increase in CAN$ effected y'all. Do you actually have more purchasing power? In Bellingham Washington Canadians are all over the place buying US goods.

Replaced it with version d.

Z is still under warranty but because it broke in my garage I fixed it myself since I didn't have to tow the car and risk having someone break my lip or scratch my z.

Rev A replaced with Rev D, but STILL at dealership with "P-Shift Light" issue.

6 year, 75,000 warranty.

Power Nissan from last Tuesday till Friday (where steering wheel lock was replaced, at least it starts now...) Still had problems so it was driven to Universal City Nissan (where it was purchased) Monday of this week, where it is till current. (And Universal is saying Power Nissan's work wasn't done right...)
