CSC and a clutch question?

So my Z Just hit 67k and is in need of a new clutch. I am leaning towards JWT. But I heard anytime you upgrade the clutch you need to

Default CSC and a clutch question?

So my Z Just hit 67k and is in need of a new clutch. I am leaning towards JWT. But I heard anytime you upgrade the clutch you need to get a new CSC? I daily this car and track it maybe 3 times a year. people tell me that CSC will fail sooner or later so should I get the CSC now to save me the trouble or would I be okay to just get the JWT clutch. I am on a budget and not looking to spend a grip. Your suggestions are very much appreciated .

Do it. Is not a matter of "if is going to happen" but more like "when is going to happen".

Default Z Speed CSC - Out of Stock

the Zspeed website for the HD CSC says "Backordered".

Anyone know where else this item can be purchased?

iirc Z1 has a CSC elimination kit to address this issue. Can't say much beyond it exists though since I have the ZSpeed HD CSC.
