All 2003 owners
So, I just finished reading the thread about everybody with 2003's and some 2004's having to replace their transmissions. It seems like almost everybody did it. I just picked up my 03Z from NY yesterday and just got back home in Michigan today. I have 12k+ miles on the car and the tranny seems fine. My question for 2003 owners is: Who hasn't replaced their transmission yet? And how many miles do you have?

I don't think I needed to replace my tranny/clutch and Flywheel set up, but when I first got the car I knew I had a Warrantee on that stuff, so I began drifting in the car when I first got it, and took it to Nissan and they did what I expected (changed it). But had I not practiced drifting....I don't think it would have needed to be changed...

11k, 2003, no problemos....I think you get the point now, it wasnt EVERY 2003-4 that had problems, if we knew exactly why they have the bad trans it would have been posted here. Good luck.
