I looked at some of the threads about it. People were saying that its better, but I didnt understand whats so bad with the OEM one? Maybe I need to test the new clutch first on someone elses car first.

Ive heard suggestions of this. How is the wilwood master be better then the OEM master? Does the OEM master fail alot to necessitate the upgrade?

I see. Well, it can be bought later, and Im trying to keep costs low since I already have to buy new brakes pads and rotors. And I want new rims and tires too.

So I guess I'll just do the Z1 slave for now, i'll look at the clutch and master next season.

Thanks all! I'll post up in this thread and in the Z1 sponsor thread about how it feels, issues, etc...

Ok i just got the car back from the mechanic and he said that the Z1 CSC is an effective replacement for the OEM csc. I was able to drive the car home without problems and the clutch problem is entirely gone. I'm glad that the slave is now on the outside, where it should have been the entire time. If I have more issues, i'll be sure to post in this thread to let you all know.
