While driving my 2005 nissan 350z it will stop responding to the gas pedal and all of the lights on the dash (check engine, tire slip, ect.) will cut on. I can cut the car off and back on which has fixed it the two times it has happened. The car will respond to gas once in park but will only rev up to 1500 RPM. It has been cold lately, but it has happened once on highway, and once 2 minutes after the car was started (roughly one month between the first time it happened and the next occurance).
SOURCE: transmission slipping
What you need is a "revolution sensor" I had the same exact problem. Replaced the sensor and everything is fine

check the transmission fluid for starters. sounds like it is low. Is tranny still under warranty? I would take it back to whoever did work
SOURCE: clutch slipping
A clutch is usually adjusted from underneath the car if it's a mechanical clutch.
Your comment that there is very little play at the top indicates an improperly adjusted clutch. You should have about 1/2 - 3/4 inch of play before feeling the clutch in the pedal.

You need to have the system tested for trouble codes, Kragen and Autozone parts stores do this for free.
SOURCE: my nissan 350z sometimes stalls after starting
after i replaced the battery in my 2003 350z, it would stall immediatly after i cranked it on unless i gave it a little gas. I fixed this by cleaning the MAF and throtle body valve. Total supply costs were $15 and took about 20 minutes. My Z is not only fixed but runs smoother and cleaner.
