Major worn parts

Jimbo370 · 02-04-2014, 06:14 PM

Has any of the 2009 370z cars had their clutch or brakes done due to wear not for mods. My last 1990 300zx went 100k miles for both. I have 56k so far and just want to be prepared. There are better aftermarket parts I hope than just Nissan. enlighten me. I looked at group buys for brakes. THANKS

Clutch will depend on how its uses as well as brakes, rotors however might have to be resurface or changed but I'm not sure how many miles lol

Clutch no, but people have had concentric slave cylinder wear with less than 50,000 mi.

Oddly enough, at 30K miles my original brake pads still had meat on them, but the rotors were too thin to be resurfaced. I had new rotors put on and put new pads on at the same time (of course).

No brake problems, but the CSC problem. Looming over my head is making me nervous, especially with Zdayz coming up soon.

yah, i think the csc could be the first drivetrain thing that might go south if you drive pretty aggressively like doing burnouts and hard shifts.

mine is a 09, 14k miles, driven spiritedly but not abusively. i dont plan on swapping the csc during my ownership. if i do encounter the problem, i would get an aftermarket one and ask my local speed shop to help me install it.

brake pads have ample pad material left. im thinking about bleeding them this summer.
