Z1 HD CSC? (I didn't think they made one)

I would bet money that your CMC (Master) is failing. They are almost as fragile as the OEM CSC. It's inexpensive and relatively easy to replace. Joe@ZSpeed (the resident clutch expert vendor) always recommends changing the CMC and CSC together because of it.

I had similar symptoms you are describing and it was my CMC...
