Ya when they first came out, they had brake fade problems and over-heating problems too. I think an oil cooler is an option now and they fixed the fade issue. Just don't buy the first year model if you're going to track it stock.

1992 Nissan Sentra SE-R - Mostly original at 125k miles.
2001 Toyota Tundra SR5 4X4 - Stock and boring.
1971 Jeep CJ5 - Dauntless V6, 3spd manual. Super slow and super fun.

My opinion is that this is a repost, and you're how many years late?

Edit: 2.5 years it seems.

sorry if its a repost.
Yeah, I know its a few years, but what has nissan done to correct this?
Options for customers to pay more for safety ?
So are we sticking up for nissan because its the first year?

It happens. Look at us with the 5th gear problems. Nissan should have fixed it. I'm pretty sure they fixed the 370Z's problems.
