I would not recommend DYI if this is not something you are familiar with / don't have a garage to house the vehicle / lack all necessary tools.

While you're at it, I would recommend talking with Ryan at RJM. He offers a heavy-duty CMC as well as a clutch pedal assembly that greatly improves the shifting experience. If you combine the Z Speed and RJM components, you should end up with a bullet-proof clutch system. Also, bleed the system regularly using a high-quality DOT 4 fluid, such as Motul 600, ATE TYP200, Castrol SRF or equivalent.

Thank you for this info!

Hey all..I decided to tackle this myself and I have arrived at stage one...

Removal of the transmission! I have to give credit to Carizon with his YouTube channel and in particular this FANTASTIC "how to" video he created: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMIwhJn2xuI

Without his help and some help from a very good friend of mine, I would not be this far

Now I am trying to decide a few things...
1. If I should go back with the Z1 elimination kit or OEM?
2. Should I replace the clutch and pressure plate while I am in there?
3. Should I replace the Flywheel as well?
