Ownership of 370z, any problems?

I almost got it figured out, as to the exact rev count to maintain, so as to avoid the clunk
What is working for you? My Mustang was the same way... a little frustrated to have to deal with it in the Z. Sometimes the 1-2 shift is painfully long for me to avoid the clunk.

It's pretty temperamental. Some days the gearbox and clutch feels absolutely perfect... other days the clutch feels spongy and the gearbox a little notchy. Dunno if it's just me going crazy or if the car is just moody.

Always good to have a car with character, though.
