I just replaced mine with the one from Z speed with a Southbend stage 3 ,no more worrying when it will decide to give out.

Guys, I had the same thing happened to me on Friday (pedal to the floor - no leaking, fluid level was fine). Dealer flushed the DOT3 fluid (OEM) out, filled with fresh DOT 4, bled properly and problem solved. Our cars run very hot and with the fluids absorbing water over time, thus lowering the boiling point, the DOT 3 fluid boils at much lower temps rendering it useless.

Yep. Bleeding the clutch after track days is always a gruesome sight

I have a question then.. If I am running through a canyon, staying in 3rd gear almost the whole drive through.. Speeds anywhere from 45-80, not shifting much at all, not using the clutch much at all, am I still effecting slave/master cylinder? or fluids?
