Bye bye CSC!
CSC decided to go while I was on the highway. Noticed the clutch going soft, pulled off at the next exit then it sunk while on a side street. Was able to pull off and thankfully it was at 10 pm so I wasn't blocking anyone. Zero fluid in the resivor. I have the gold warranty (Nissan gave it to me discounted )!and I a, glad I have it for this. Don't have the money for the zspeed CSC but will get it next year with a clutch now.

It went at 33k miles. I have my final track day of the year on the 16th so I hope its done in time. Dealer is looking at it now and will call as soon as they determine the issue. I was blocking a part of the lane but that was as far as I could get the car. Road was empty but a few cops drove by and said nothing. Got a laught at that. Go figure this happens right after I move otherwise I would be having them install the HD CSC.

That's why I'm glad to know we have one of the top GTR serviceman and techs here in AZ. They're mod friendly and all for Z's and GTRs. |

Service dept confirmed it was the CSC. They are checking the clutch to see if it got contaminated. I had ATE superblue in it so it was easy to spot the mess. Warranty is covering it and nissan is now switching the factory brake fluid in the clutch of all Z's to the fluid used in the GTR. I will be missing my final track event since parts won't be in till next Friday. Zero questions about the use of car though which is nice.
