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

With these mods the engine temp issues seemed to be solved, but yesterday when it got into the 90s I started to experience a really mushy, unresponsive clutch where when I try to accelerate from a stop, it feels like the transmission is bogged down and the car just does not want to go.

I am wondering that even though I am not experiencing the "clutch pedal drops to the floor and doesn't return" symptom, that what I am experiencing may be the CSC getting too hot.

Would it be worth trying the Z1 CSC Elimination kit if you were in my shoes? I must solve this otherwise it may be time for the Z to go
