Which Transmission in my Z?
I've been looking for info everywhere and can't find any..
I want to know if you guys can tell me which is stock in my 2004 z. Looked for the info but some people on forums say CD008 and some say CD009.
Where could I find the number on the transmission?

What years came with the CD009 transmission, My research said 2006 and up, is that right?
Right now I have no issues but am paranoid I might have some in the future.. heard nothing but bad thing about the CD008

From what I've seen with my searching auto salvages they're in 2006. Pricing is averaging 1k for the area as well.
I've also not had a problem with mine ('04) with 120k miles. With close to half of those being abuse from prior owner. Luck maybe?

Okay yeah I guess I was right about 2006.
Yeah I really never have noticed an issue and never beat on it. My Z is only at 47k, I'm just very cautious because of the previous owner I have no idea how it was driven. I read too much into things. I mean I guess if it was that bad Nissan would have done a recall.
My clutch is very strong and so is the tranny from what I can tell. Although I do have that clutch chatter but it's annoying more then anything.
My daily driver has had grinding synchros for over 75k and the tranny and clutch are still good. I just don't downshift into certain gears.

Depends on your intentions for the car. I just had Z1 swap my transmission for a brand new CD009 along with their mild performance clutch/flywheel kit. In the long run, it would be way more beneficial to just pay to have the transmission replaced than sell and buy something else. The transmission I put in will easily be paying for itself. I had the internal battle of possibly just upgrading to an 08 to get the HR and the CD009, but decided to fix my DE. I prefer to have money for mods or other things in my life in general instead of a stupid high car payment.
I live in a place where winter is very bad and it's common to get a foot or two of snow over night. They also use salt on the roads which eats up the underbody and metal on the car.
I've been debating on getting rid of my z, for that fact. I simply don't drive it much as it's become more of a "toy" than a way of transportation.
