If the car is stock, get a new clutch and a lighter flywheel with a metal CSC, get a Quaife diff, FI exhaust and a RJM clutch pedal , then tell us how you feel.
^ I agree




And your diff is leaking? Or the subframe bushing?

Funny enough, my RX-8 was in the dealer more times than any car I've owned. My 92 Camry's motor crapped out at 110k miles and I had a Civic where everything but the motor fell apart. Please enlighten us all by naming a mass produced car that has never had a mechanical problem.

...on second thought, you probably just trolling anyways.

Honda and Toyota are in another league when it comes to quality , build, resale value . A couple issues on their part is nothing compared to Nissan bs.

Bit of a stretch to say "another league" when statistically when the topic of "reliability, quality and resale" come up, Nissan is always up there.

But again, possibly trolling as mentioned by another member...so I shall remain calm lol. I mean...you actually said Mazda...lmao

If it makes you feel any better, Nissan is not a fan of you either.

I've had 49 cars since the 80's. About 10 of them Nissan/Infiniti. Most reliable and trouble free of all my brands. And I've had multiple vehicles within a brand - had 11 Jeeps. 5 BMW's. 3 Volvos. 4 Infinitis. Some great, some not so great.

Brands that include:

Audi
BMW
Volvo
Nissan
Infiniti
Oldsmobile
Pontiac
Jeep
Ford
Range Rover
Jaguar
VW
Among them.

Hate the ISSUE or the particular car - not every car or the brand.

It's a shame you are having issues- and we all feel badly for you for that. But for every 1 member on here, there are 50 who have no clue what a forum is.

No way... You posted too???
We all know I have REAL car problems, but I tried fixing or alleviating them,

Your problems have arisen because you're being too damn lazy in a car YOU leased (like your clutch sucks and you didn't even KNOW about the helper spring and when you take it out report how much better the car is)

You get 12-14MPG and somehow you don't have fun, you just blame bad gas mileage I RAPE my car and get better mileage, you gotta be lying to us

And as much as I hate my Nissans, I still like the community, and I still like HELPING, your posts are bullshít now... Well... Since always

Default 2010 370z base model no problems

I have a 2010 Z with only 10000 miles. I have no problems. I realize I have low miles.

Look at Porsche Cayman's Boxster's and some 911's IMS failures and a class action law suit.
