Another clutch thread, I know.
As we all know the 370z oem clutch doesn't seem to be up to par with the rest of the vehicles abilities, or at least the slave cylinder. There are plenty of threads on here about it new and old and I've been looking through them, unfourtionately I haven't been able to find my problem.
I bought my car used in late May with 27k on it and my first problems with the clutch started around 34k give or take a thousand miles. My first problem was the usual slave cylinder I do believe and after I little reserve here I decided to upgrade to a ZSpeed CSC with hopes to avoid anymore problems. That hasn't been the case, I had the Zspeed CSC and stock master switched out in November I believe and did not have any problems at all until late January. I started feeling the dreaded soft clutch pedal again, there was also a black residue in the clutch fluid resivour (I'll add a picture if I can figure it out). Due to a field op I left my car in its state for the entire month of February, and started driving it again the beginning of March. The problem persisted so I decided to bleed my lines hoping it was just a bad bleed job and that only fixed it for a few hours.
Does anybody have any idea what the problem might be? It's my daily and I need it so I have been driving with this soft clutch for a month now, it varies between soft and stiff and I haven't noticed anymore black residue. If anybody has had the same problem and could give some advice that'd be awesome.
Thank you for your time.
