I totally agree with what you and few other posted on this thread about some of the potential reasons for the CSC premature failure.
Having the clutch depressed all the time certainly increase the wear and tear of the entire clutch system as some of you stated. Shifting hard at high rpm and riding on the clutch would definitely put even more stress on the clutch system.
Thanks all for providing the productive comments/opinions.

I've owned many MT cars and never wore out a clutch disc, pressure plate or flywheel. I've replaced many clutches for people that couldn't understand why this happened so "soon". How you drive is directly proportional to how long our total clutch mechanism lasts free from problems. Oddly many nissan dealers don't actually have 6 csc and/or cmc stocked on their shelves. ..wonder why?
Maybe we should drive these cars in the manner in which we can afford re. Repairs and wear and TEAR....just my 12 cents!
