Default Sticking clutch

So my clutch sticks to the floor and i need to manually lift it back up. On long freeway drives clutch just totally depresses and I'm unable to get in gear. Just wanted to make sure if its my slave cylinder or my master cylinder.

Couldn't find any aftermarket master cylinders but found 2-3 aftermarket slave cylinders.

Replace the MC at the same time. You'll be sorry later if you don't.

Its the CMC. I just installed a Zspeed HD CSC and the new oem CMC seals just ripped again. The 350z CMC doesnt fit because of ABS on the z34

Did you also replace the CMC Nick? I assume that replacing the CSC it would be a 'lifetime' fix.

Guess i'll head down to nissan on monday to pick up/order a oem CMC and order a CSC online during the week

Same thing happened to me. Took the dealer 4 tries to finally admit they felt the problem. Turned out it was a "leaky" CSC

Probably end up changing the cmc first and then ordering the cms to be replaced when it arrives.
