yah, if mine ever goes out while i own my 17k mile 09, i would get the one with the external slave cylinder like the one mr.jar haz.
then i could fix it on my own.

plus those are highway miles right? probably in WAAAAY better condition than say a granma driven 5min trip car with super low miles.

old people shouldn't be allowed to drive. they see you and still merge into you. they hear you honking your horn and everything, but thug life.

yeh, i know they want to be out and about like the rest of us, but they should use their retired community shuttle imo too. for their own safety and ours.

another reason why i hate motoring my Z during 'geezer hour' which is weekdays 9:15am to 11:30am..

lol i did half your mileage in literally 1 year of ownership... then again you have mor toys to play with

but if i had to chose the replacement... it'd be the chaepest one to source. as both options seem to be viable alternatives.

on another note though... has anyone have a failed HDCSC?

the external one you dont need to drop the tranny to do the replacement if it ever failed again. that's a huge delta on labor cost. aka free

i think my rc cars are catching up to my Z's milage..

As far as I know, the HD CSC has only failed when paired with a Spec clutch.
