Thanks man! Looking forward to the fun times

 

Never a car wash, learn up on the 2 bucket method. There is a detailers section here you can read.

 

First mod, the k&n filters. Don't forget to put on the sticker that comes with the box or the mod wont work

 

Thats going to suck for me seeing how lazy I actually am when it comes to that.

 

I'm 6'5 and there are times I regret getting the car due to lack of head room. But there isn't really much of a choice for newer Japanese GT or sports car with headroom. I have to open the sunroof visor to even think about wearing a helmet.

GL with the purchase!

Oh maybe you already stated, is it a 6 speed manual? If so go ahead and put cash aside to buy a new clutch slave cylinder! Or buy an aftermarket warranty like I did.

 

What year is yours? I sat in a 13 and put the seat all the way down. Worked out really well for me. 🤤

 

2011. Too be fair I do sit with the seat rather straight up. Not like a straight back chair, but def something geared more towards spirited driving.

 

I would appreciate learning more about your experience that led to new clutch slave cylinder.

I have a 2013 6MT with about 21,000 miles in it, and keep it in top shape. My concern is around learning what I can do to head off any issues if possible.

Thank you

 

Oh man it's buried somewhere in my build thread, shameless pitch. But anyway idk if anything can really be done as preventive maintenance for the CSC to prevent failure. Maybe someone else can chime in? Once it fails though you can buy a better built aftermarket csc though! Some go with Z1's "elimination" kit, I went with, forgot the company name, but the heavy duty (HD) CSC.
