You hardly have any mods so you could just run a nissan clutch on the jwt flywheel if you want something that will be easier on the CSC. (lower clamp pressure means less work for the hydraulics, and it has the correct finger engagement instead of using a 350z pressure plate like the jwt)

well i dont like the 370z stock clutch a lot, no feeling and completely numb, i did call JWT and they said i can buy just the clutch plate for $160 iirc
my reservoir is close to empty when i checked it today so i think there is a great chance i need to clean those parts and get a new clutch plate anyways
do you know the type of places that would be able to clean the flywheel and clutch, JWT said to use brake cleaner, and some friends recommend dawn with warm water and if that doesnt do it than engine degreaser with a rag
im upgrading to the Zspeed CSC(what i should have done from the beginning) and im replacing the CMC with a brand new OEM one like Zspeed recommends so hydraulics should be fine after this, i just made the mistake of letting nissan put a factory CSC in the tranny cause now they refuse to touch it even though they told me that they would cover it if the part failed
