It's easy once you talk to people... And maybe the Dallas people will chime in, I wish my regular non 370Z friends were here too, they'd tell you that I am a wizard at times, LOL


He had an engine replacement, and TECHNICALLY he was out of the factory warranty

He's on the forum Japanjay, ask him, he might hate me for having 1200 people asking if I'm talking out I my ***, but it IS doable to get money from Nissan

im a die hard stick shift driver, but i really really wish i got the 7AT. Its amazing how clunky and sloppy this gearbox is.. I have to pray to not get smoked by a Toyota Camry without having to floor it to get to 3rd gear.

Wow, some of you guys most of just had bad luck with your trannys. My 09 shifts nice and smooth, same with two previous 350z's I owned.

And I would never own an automatic sports car

Sometimes I feel that it wont left me shift to the right gear, Is that because its not the right gear I should be shifting to?

They would swerve more if you had turned VDC off...

if you don't like it, don't lose traction, to not lose traction, don't drive so fast

Is this before or after the dealership replaced your CSC?

When you say it won't let you shift to a gear, can you give a much more specific example? Are you downshifting or upshifting? What RPMS? Do you have SRM (rev match)? I assume you have the clutch pedal depressed and are trying to shift into a gear other than 1st. Up to about 55 mph you should be able to shift into any gear except 1st and reverse, of course. The other day SRM basically redlined me in neutral at 60 mph when I accidentally pulled the shift knob all the way over to 2nd while trying to go from 6th to 4th gear

Sometimes I'm going pretty fast like lets say 5th gear, 4 or 5 RPM's, about 70MPH and I try to shift to 6th gear and it feels likes it wont let me until the car slows down a bit. Now take that example and think about 3rd gear going 50mph and when I try to switch to 4th it wont let me. I feel like If I shift really fast it will but If I dont shift within 2 seconds it blocks me.

Hopefully that makes sense
