Priced a clutch replacement today :facepalm:

You can either do the hd csc or do the z1 elimination kit for the csc. I went with an ACT clutch flywheel and pressure plate and z1 elim kit.

You can either do the hd csc or do the z1 elimination kit for the csc. I went with an ACT clutch flywheel and pressure plate and z1 elim kit. Runs great now and only paid about $2k for parts and labor.
I wouldnt suggest doing the install yourself unless you KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING... IN AND OUT BACKWARDS ANS FORWARDS.

The guys at my shop told me straight up that the csc elim kit was a F'IN BITCHH..

Just some more feedback. Just dont go to the dealership lol.

DO NOT upgrade your clutch without upgrading the CSC (or eliminating it). The OEM CSC will not be up to the task of dealing with your upgraded clutch. It will fail, and fail pretty soon.

I have the ZSpeed HD CSC and the Z1 Clutch/Flywheel package and I am happy with the setup.. I didn't do a retune afterwards, but everything works properly.

I just replaced my CSC this past summer assuming it was the issue. Turns out it was the Master Cylinder...ugh.

I went with OEM clutch/PP, Z1 HD CSC, and Southbend lightened flywheel. Engine revs a little faster, and driveability is perfect. I also have the eBay clutch helper spring. Daily driven since, no issues. Didn't even really take time to relearn to drive the car.
