Z1 Motorsports Clutch Concentric Slave Cylinder Elimination Kit

Saw this over at the 370Z site. Looks promising...

I've seen Z's with it. Apparently there's a design flaw that makes it extremely difficult to bleed it correctly. It's an improvement over the OEM CSC, but still has it's own problems.

Wow. I had no idea this was even in development. I'm eager to see the first real world results and reviews of them.

Looked briefly at the install instructions. Few sharp corners, that might be why difficulty in bleeding.

I'm usually the last to adopt something, so will wait to see what the feedback is from other more adventurous types... My car is under fully warranty for another 6 years, give or take. If/when mine does fail, I was thinking of going with the HD csc. Need to read their ad more closely to see what advantage this has over that design.

Mine is going to the dealer tomorrow for the grinding noise coming from the clutch when you turn the car off. Last time they replaced the clutch. They did not replace the CSC. My warranty runs out in August and this will probably be going on my car. But I'm like Jsolo, I need to see other peoples experiences with it first.

Someone on the 370z site had this installed. Nothing but praises. I do wonder though, with the externally mounted piston, what keeps dirt from getting in it.

Had this on my G for about 5000 miles. I haven't tried bleeding it yet, but have had no issues with it to date. There is an installation manual online that states there will be some adjustment and maintenance required, but I haven't touched it yet. (link is dead on the Z1 website, but I need to call them about some other work I need done, so I will let them know and update with a direct link to the .pdf file once they fix it)
