Maybe I can browbeat my wife into trying out a vehicle that has the rev-match feature. If shifting is as smooth as it is reported to be, just maybe she'd go for it.
Is the Zspeed slave (plus a new master cylinder for the clutch) a "one and done" solution? That is, does it last forever? Is that an external bleed line I see on the below photo (where the red arrow is pointing)?
Does having rev-match extend the life of a clutch plate? I imagine that it would.
Thanks.

there is a specific brand of the after market clutch that will destroy your zspeed slave. I can't remember it off the top of my head but the zspeed will be fine with your stock clutch.
as LMB said you have 2 routes. wait til it fails or just do it. I took the later since I like to go on road trips.
definitely try the SRM mode with the manual. you'll be amazed how awesome it is on the down shifts. ie @60 clicks drop from 3rd to 2nd and listen to the music
