It's never safe to assume anything, and that's why he's posting a question before he buys a brand new car. I'm sure he has done some research on the subject, but you cannot find everything you are looking for in just a few weeks. When I purchased my Z I didn't know much about the reliability of the car and i'm still learning new stuff about it while browsing the forums.
Also, all of the issues were not worked out. The CSC problem has not been fixed, and will need to be replaced at some point.

RJM Performance expects completed production of a small first batch of heavy duty clutch master cylinders by the end of this month. You might consider upgrading it as well if you are upgrading the CSC :twocents:

So...no track record on the RJM CSCs? Why would they be better than, say, a Z-Speed, which has been out for quite awhile?

Other than that I picked the car up last September with 126 miles and now have over 8000 miles with no complaints. No comment on CSC, I'm very superstitious. :tup:

Put some good dot 4 fluid in it!!! i have a 13 and put 30000 miles on it this last year (lots of road trips):driving:

Please pay attention :shakes head:

First, the RJM Performance product I clearly refer to as a clutch MASTER cylinder. Second, never did I assert its status as better than another product. This is the first heavy duty master cylinder specifically designed for the 370Z on the market. And compared to the OEM master, I'd bet money that it's far better quality.

Ryan and Joe are two of the best vendors in the business. I can't imagine a better pair than RJM HD CMC with a ZSpeed HD CSC :tup:

Of course... right after I replace my master with another oem one :shakes head: At least its not too difficult to replace the master. I hope they make it the same size as OEM as it was super tight getting the old one out. Atleast without removing the ABS Module :tup:

I would expect it to still be a tight fit, maybe just not quite as tight. I don't really care how tight the fit is if I can get it in there and don't have to worry about replacing it. But I think that's the biggest reason there's not one on the market. The people that are using something other than OEM are making slight alterations to one of the existing aftermarket options (usually made for 350Z) so that it fits in their 370Z without interfering with the ABS module.
