Sticky: (Official) 370Z Clutch Pressure (CSC) Failures

I am still waiting on the CSC delivery from Zspeed since they were closed all last week. Just got the tracking email today (7/13) and it should be in OKC by 4:30 Wed. That makes it about two weeks downtime now since mine acted up on 7/2 just before the holiday weekend. My tranny locked down in second gear with the shifter in neutral due to my clutch being floor pinned. I haven't heard of anyone else having this issue and the mechanic said it was probably just a fluke combined with my pressure and timing of pulling the shifter into neutral with the jenk pedal.

I'm still having him wrap the exhaust line in thermal kevlar along with the new part replacement.
