In the last month I had the CSC replace and the steering lock fuse, it all cost me around $1800 dollars, I don't have money right now to upgrade the car.

LOL Thanks Nissan

I am not saying this happened but:

Do not downshift in a turn at speed. Shift down in a straight line, just like braking, before the curve. This mid corner shifting can bring the rear end out. Upshifting does not unbalance the car in the same way.

You very well may be releasing the clutch too fast, while applying too much gas.

I wish you all the best. You will get it and if you'd like to ask another question, please PM me.

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
