Slave is the same in all years, We have had a few people already in 16 models with failed slaves, In fact have one sitting out front right now getting out CMAK today. Assuming 17 is no different, Part# is the same.

probably should order a Zspeed or Z1 kit just to have on hand "just in case"
however... if this gets replaced,,,, what else should i get to partner with this upgrade? flywheel too? & what else??? might as well do it all in one shot.... |

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.

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

thank you for feedback.... i'm just hoping not ALL of the CSC's are bad and there are some out there that haven't had issues
would like to see an actual percentage out there of those who have been affected vs the non-affected you guys on this forum got me stressing this CSC thing |

Gtr fluid is just dot 4 fluid. It's not a magic bullet, it'll just kick the can down the road. Fluid can't fix the plastic seals inside the csc from coming apart.

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...

If it makes you feel better, I have a 2010 with stock CSC and it's running just fine. If you truly know how to properly drive a stick shift, I doubt you'll need a replacement.

So the people who have had them fail on test drives just don't know how to drive a stick?

I don't think it has anything to do with driver skill.
