I have an 03 Z with 50k on it. The clutch seems to be fine but I do notice that when I first start it up with the stick in the neutral position, when I release the clutch the rpms drop a little (not when I release the clutch to move but just release it so I can have the car warming up while I load the trunk for example). Not a lot, but just wanted to know if this is normal or a pre cursor to a problem. Anyone know?

 

Normal. When you let off the clutch the engine has more weight to spin.

 

Thanks for the info. I thought this was the case but wanted to check since I hear different things about the clutch on the 03's

And with sub 30F temp and MT90 fluid, the car will even lurch forward !
