How many of you have the original csc?

I have my original still. It's in my garage closet. Failed twice at 6K and 59K so I am on my 3rd. Master cylinder --- I'm on my 2nd. Now

Failed twice at 6K and 59K so I am on my 3rd. Master cylinder --- I'm on my 2nd. Now I have the Tilton racing slave. So far so good. Feels slightly firmer than stock. Engagement is just right - not on the top or high.

If that is your white car, I'm jealous. People at work thought I was nuts to buy a second Z after the trouble I had with my 09 and the csc going out 3 times and the dealer not fixing it. I tell them the CSC is but one part, not the whole car and I can't get this driving experience and package in any other car at near the price. Several posters have recommended changing the master cylinder with the CSC. I plan to buy the after market CSC and replace the factory one at 36K when the warranty expires. I was thinking of replacing everything at the same time. Not sure if I should go with a different clutch either as some have recommended. Mine is street driven, not raced. I would climb over Porsche 911s just to get a good look at your car...

I didn't bother to replace the clutch when I replaced my working CSC with the Z1 kit at 51K miles; I shouldn't have any trouble getting another 50K out of it. Unless you plan to do more than drive on the street or don't know how to drive a MT, there will be absolutely no reason to replace the clutch at 36K miles.

Thanks for the reply. Whew, that is a big relief to read. So far so good with the white beauty I have. I was out of a Z for 11 months and man its good to be back. Really good news here.
