My clakked out POS CSC...

Replaced with ZI HD CSC as well and new lines, master, flywheel and clutch. It's like night and day. So much better!

Out of curiosity, what exactly is better? What has improved for your driving experience?

The pedal feel is stiffer. Before the pedal was very easy to press to the floor...it didn't flop,but there wasn't a lot of resistance. Also the engagement point was very low, towards the bottom of the pedal and the engagement area was fairly wide. Now, engagement is more towards the middle and the area of engagement is much smaller. This was the original clutch with 70k miles on it as well.

I noticed the same thing, with the clutch being stiffer.

I've been reading this thread all my 20K miles I've driven my Z and I may have missed the answer but has anyone had Nissan pay for this under warranty?...or as a preventive maintenance?....
