I'm sorry if this has been gone over in the past, but I have a suspicion there is something wrong with our cars. I'd say most of us havent noticed this, but I'm very sure a lot of you have similar issues.

I recently drove a completely stock drivetrain Nismo with less than 20K miles on it to compare how the shifter feels with mine. If anyone recalls a while back I was having some clutch disengagement problems that sometimes didnt even allow me to go into first gear. It was really annoying so I changed my clutch to a less aggressive, completely different setup. Well, I still feel it, although its nowhere near as noticeable and the car drives perfectly smoothly, the car still moves forward a little every now and then when going into first. Anyway, back to my friend's Nismo... I drove it around a few blocks coming to a complete stop some 10 times at least and 10 out of 10 times, his car lurched forward as I engaged first with the clutch pushed to the floor.

I got a message 10 minutes ago from someone asking me about my clutch issues, because they are experiencing the same thing. They have difficulty going into first gear and when it does, the car lurches forward a bit.

Other symptoms include notchy shifting and even some extra whining noise coming from the shifter area only while pressing the accelerator. It is clear that the clutch isn't completely disengaging for some reason and this could cause problems further down the line.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?? Try it next time you're in your car at a stop. Get your feet off the clutch pedal completely, then press it and go into first. Pay attention to whether the car moves forward as you are doing it.
I've heard of other modded Z's having the same problem locally, to the point where people couldn't even go into first gear.

Please chime in! I don't think its the clutch itself, I think it is something in the system!
