Hey guys, just wanted to introduce myself to the site. Bought my '06 350Z on Monday. 48k miles, pretty much mint condition with a nice lip kit, Volk 19's, and lowered on Tanabe springs.
Love it so far, especially coming from an '04 Sentra SE-R Spec-V. Already have an issue though, pretty much the same exact problem I had in the Sentra; the clutch line is expanding in heat. Basically the clutch is fine when I start driving, but after about 15 minutes of stop and go traffic, the clutch pedal hesitates to return on the last 1/4 of movement.
Like I said, had the problem in the Sentra and a SS clutch line fixed it. I've also been reading around here the past couple days about clutch issues and it seems like this car has plenty I'm pretty sure I'll be replacing the master/slave cylinder soon regardless of whether or not the SS line fixes my problem.
Anyway, sorry about the essay, see you guys around

Congrats on the purchase by the way. It seems as though you got a great start. I had that problem with my clutch, its pretty common although there isn't a set way that is proven to fix the problem. I have 45k on my 06 and I just ended up replacing the clutch, added a SS clutch line, had the brake lines flushed and bled. And the problem has since went away. I didn't replace the master or slave cylinder though.
