We're you just doing a fluid exchange or were you experiencing problems with CLUTCH prior ?

Issues prior. Fluid was filthy so was hoping a flush would help. Replaced the fluid with the R35 fluid per the TSB.

We're there any "particles" in fluid? Kind of look like black flakes or coffee grounds? If so it could be what I went through in May. CSC failure! It's a cheap part but requires removal of Exhaust, drive shaft & transmission. If it is CSC do not buy OEM CSC! It's junk. Buy a HD CSC from ZSpeed.com

Yeah Joe. Fluid was really dirty...sludge-like almost. My cousin is an excellent mechanic and he will be doing the install.

Good that you have someone do install. Look at bright side! New CLUTCH kit, light weight Flywheel, HD CSC, new CMC, & you be right as rain!

replace your CSC & CMC together, and since your transmission will be open while you're doing that, you could always upgrade your clutch & flywheel... just a thought.

Yep. What I figured. Upgrading clutch and flywheel while I'm in there.

I'd also replace the CMC too. Work smarter. Eastwest & myself had same replaced at AAM Competition .

The drive to GB and back should help somewhat. If not, there's always the drive to MI

My Z went through two OEM CSC's. Once with previous owner, who put in another OEM CSC, and then that one broke on me.
