2007 and up went to a CSC which SUCKS! Read up on CSC failure and dead clutch pedals.

Just get the right transmission and stop trying to save a buck that is going to cost you in the long run.

I believe if you change the bellhousing you'll be good. I remember a thread where some guy swapped the bellhousing on the 370z tranny and made it fit his 350. I'll search for it when i am not lazy.

I swear there is a guy that did this swap (one way or the other) and had to do some extensive machining work to make it happen. Not just bolts and fluids.
