Nissan 370Z Forum  

My list of 7 biggest, but solvable issues with stock 370Z Nismo

Need a block, and head redesign to better hold under high boost conditions. Plus a sequential transmission.

Not sure what problems you are referring to but the transmission issue was resolved, they did add an oil cooler which helps but doesn't totally solve the problem.
Amsoil for me had NO oil consumption so that was easily resolved. The fuel starvation never once had a problem in my 2017. And also had 45k miles original clutch with no csc failure....
Maybe I got lucky or maybe Nissan fixed most things....

You should view this as a positive actually. With a chassis this old, all the problems are known and fixes available

1) Clutch slave cylinder? There's half a dozen options from zspeed, z1, tilton

2) oil cooler? Fast intentions, Z1 all got you covered with multiple options

3) fuel starve? z1 and CJM have a variety of options, and the problem doesn't hit everyone apparently

4) understeer? SPL FUCA and an alignment, problem solved


As long as you're smart and shop for a good used example that is obviously below what a dealer charges for a new one AND you build in the cost of these fixes into your budget . . . the Z is a pretty reliable and fun car
