some people have sensor issues
some people have rattles
some have clutch issues
some have gear issues.

Its not a widespread 99% of people will have the problem.. I think Nissan's QC is good enough to prevent that from happening, but every company has issues with a small % of its things.

Think of anything that every went wrong on a car or product of yours. I guarantee you that you will be in the minority compared to people who didnt. Does that mean that you were the problem with it (whatever it was)?
Perhaps I didn't convey my opinion well in the first post. The clutch is a relatively fragile aspect of any manual transmission car that will readily be destroyed if improperly used. With the heresay available on this forum, the explanation of a defective CSC is just as likely as driver-induced destruction. Until people post videos of their clutching technique, it will remain a hazy area. I merely stated my suspicion that driver use/misuse may be a factor.

The OP is having a problem that many many other owners who track their Zs will never experience. I don't want people reading the OP's thread thinking that a clutch upgrade is a mandatory part of tracking the Z. It's not.
