What
is
a
CD009?
There
is
a
lot
of
rumor
and
misinformation
surrounding
what
this
term
means.
It's
simply
half
of
a
part
number.
32010-CD009
is
the
part
number
for
a
manual
transmission
out
of
an
05-06
350Z,
05-06
G35
Sedan,
or
05-07
G35
Coupe,
that's
it.
Earlier
versions
ended
in
CD003,
CD005,
CD008,
etc.
The
"CD009"
variant,
later
replaced
with
the
CD00A,
just
specifies
the
most
sought-after
variant,
as
it
shipped
with
upgraded
synchros
over
the
earlier
version.
Note
that
if
you
have
a
transmission
from
a
later
07+
Z,
370Z,
G37,
etc,
those
were
never
a
CD009,
and
follow
later
part
suffixes
like
"JK400."
While
they
share
similar
internals
to
the
CD009
(since
they
came
after),
they
have
different
bellhousings
and
clutch
release
mechanisms.
What
does
this
purchase
get
me?
If
you're
not
sure
of
the
donor
car
or
production
date
of
a
transmission,
this
purchase
will
have
us
reverse-search
your
transmission
against
Nissan's
database
to
confirm
whether
or
not
it
is
the
CD009,
and
we
will
email
you
confirmation
of
which
part
number
your
transmission
is.
Please
include
your
full
VIN
in
the
"Comments"
section
during
checkout,
and
you
can
expect
to
receive
a
response
within
24
hours
or
less.
These
MUST
be
a
17-digit
VIN
starting
with
JN1
(Nissan)
or
JNK
(Infiniti).
What
else
does
this
tell
me?
All
we
can
determine
is
which
part
number
a
vehicle
would
have
shipped
with
from
the
factory.
We
can't
see
mileage
or
history
on
the
transmission,
and
this
is
isn't
an
assessment
of
how
good
the
transmission
is--just
what
it
is.
