I personally came to the conclusion that the 06 is great due to more torque than the HR (torque makes a car get up to speed better than hp).... i hear the 07-08s can and do make more power but ive heard the HR has oil proplems....also the hood on the 06 looks better than the 07-08 IMO
OK... so we know why you wouldn't swap your 06 for an HR

07? Really? I had an 07 and the slave cylinder problems are worse than the 06 oil consumption problems. I would say the 08's are the most reliable.

I had my slave changed and after that I have had 0 problems, unless I try and launch on DRs then I run into some problems

my friend has an 08 and has more slave problems then I do.

Slave was defective in some 07s, so replacement should solve the problem. Using HD slave would certainly solve it. Having said this..I have 08 with 45K miles...no issues..clutch is like butter.

NO way you can compare a one time fix like the slave cyl with the oil consumption issue

I have the infamous 06 6MT. Fortunately mine has no oil consumption problem. If I were you and could afford 07/08 models, I'd do it because it's newer and has HR engine in it.

he has a HD slave and an 08 ...

he blew up his stock slave on his first and only track day. I think he fixed the problem with the wilwood master but before he was having a lot of problems..

Use the Search button, just about anything you can ask about the 350z has a vast array of information on here already.

I have an '05 which now has 120k and I have never had a problem with the car
