Hey Guys!

Here's another update! Not that it matters but hey, why not? lol

This morning, I drove my z to the shop that installed my stage3 clutch along with CSC Elimination Kit. Upon arrival, my guy had one of the guy test drive the car. And immediately he stalled the car and was struggling because the clutch was sensitive. And I forgot to mention that the guy from Nissan service was also telling me the same thing, how he stalled my car multiple times and that the clutch is extremely sensitive and that it shouldn't be that sensitive. So after the drive, they wanted to bleed the fluids and go from there. However, after bleeding the fluids, they couldn't get the pressure back on the clutch. As in at this point, when you press the clutch peddle, it just drops and doesn't pop back up. Instead, you would manually have to pull it with your feet.

At this point, he states that it's either master or slave cylinder. We were able to find a local distributor that had a master cylinder, so we replaced the master cylinder. However even after that, issue was not fixed. At this point, we're waiting on the parts for the slave cylinder. It should arrive Thursday so I'll post another update.

Here's some thoughts: Now I'm wondering why did I even installed the z1 csc elimination kit? And now I'm wondering, was my slave was to go out? Did I just get lucky and got there at the right time before my car actually breaks down? Or did I get unlucky? In a way, I feel like if I just drove the car, nothing would of happened lol. Not sure what to make of it.

Here's my concern. Let's say that replacing the slave cylinder fixes the clutch and now my clutch is good to go. However, I still havent got to the bottom of the original issue. Why was the engine not cranking? If you're in my shoe, would you have them drop the tranny to further see if there are any in depth issues? Labor on dropping tranny alone is $350.
