Well like with the 370Z, it's almost all but necessary to replace the brake/clutch fluid, add an oil cooler, and swap out brake pads. I'm guessing everything but the oil cooler would probably still need to be done for the C6 GS? I noticed the GS doesn't have SS Brake lines (not sure about clutch line?). Any other obvious weak points like this that should be addressed before tracking?
