Clutch and Transmission Issues

bboylegit · 09-09-2012, 10:06 PM

So, I figure everyone on here, or at least a majority, are a lot more experienced and educated when it comes to issues regarding the 370z.

Well today after some spirited driving and getting my *** handed to me by my buddies 1JZ swapped s13, I started having problems were my clutch would not come all the way up after it was fully depressed. It would come up maybe half way if that. Also, for the life of me I could not get my car into gear. It took a couple of attempts, but after awhile it started to go into gear, but it was really rough.

I've had the issue with the clutch before, but usually after letting the car chill out overnight it wouldn't stick to the floor anymore. I'm already planning to replace the clutch and flywheel with an aftermarket one. I'm just hoping I didn't do any real damage

So this morning, when I started up the car it still wouldn't go into gear. After a few revs though, it was like everything went back to normal. I hope thats the case.

If anyone thinks otherwise and thinks I should be concerned PLLLLEEEEEAAASSSE let me know. I would love a second opinion.

Check the CSC thread right on the top buddy!

Yup, could be CSC. Most who track their car usually replace this.

never track, just driven "spiritedly" on the street and mine broke at 24k miles.

That's your clutch slave cylinder (CSC). Read the sticky.
