I wouldn't order the kit while you still have warranty coverage and your CSC hasn't had any issues. However, once that coverage is gone, yeah, being ready to put in a permanent fix is not a bad idea.

since you are under warranty... if it did go out on you, I would provide them an Z1 HD-CSC and ask them to install that instead.

I personally wouldn't bother upgrading the clutch/flywheel unless you are planning to go to the track or planning to go turbo/super.

I originally was thinking I might order it ahead of time, but then some go 50-80k before needing one. Some need one at 20k.. I decided to just wait it out and see what happens, I'll order parts when I actually need them. No sense in something sitting on the shelf for 3-4 years just in case, especially since its not dirt cheap. Also I know typically these are parts that are in stock and I can get quickly.

Just FYI, do some reading. The Z1 kit requires adjustments. Several people were claiming they needed adjuatments every 1k-3k miles. The ZSpeed CMAK is supposed to be self adjusting.

In my case I decided to be proactive. I had mine replaced @28k miles with a ZSpeed CMAK and ZSpeed stock replacement clutch/flywheel. The "Z" is our daily driver for my wife since I travel frequently and park the SUV at the airport. I didn't want the CSC failing while she's driving to work and I'm away from home.

The CMAK has been flawless...
