Here are some pics I took of my clutch/CSC job I did a couple months ago, taking it out and putting back in it helps to have another person handy. Joe also recommended using Motul Gear 300 Trans fluid (manual 6 spd)

Good luck.

If you lived closer we could of done it. A lift is everything in this hobby. I know I will always be into cars. Thats why I bought one years ago. Never had an issue yet.

yea the CSC is pretty much mandatory if your replacing your clutch. The stock one is primarily plastic! My Z is in the shop right now getting the OS Giken GT clutch and OS Giken Diff installed....along with the CSC.
