Technically no, but CSC fails even with stock clutch.

Do you think it's easier to go ahead and get an aftermarket CSC when changing out the clutch? If it goes out, you'll have to drop the transmission again.

well i didnt know about the CSC issues until now, and I just picked up my car from getting a new clutch haha. I put in the Z1 motorsports clutch/lightweight flywheel combo with their steel line. Its supposed to have the same clamping force as a stock clutch
