Hey all, I had my clutch upgraded with the hardtopguy package recently. I had his stock disc and ACT pressure plate put on, but with the Toda flywheel instead of the comptech (his comptech was out of stock).
From the begining I've noticed that on hard red-line shifts there is a squeaking noise present. I really can't figure this out. Could this be springs breaking in? Lack of lubrication someplace? If so I'm hoping its on something easily accescible like the fork on the tranny and not something tough to get at.
I've also noticed that when shifting at any point, there is a slight chatter. Is this where the light flywheel chatter would be noticed? I don't hear it so much when accelerating, just when engaging or disengaging the clutch.
I had it done the same time I had the TSB done for the tranny popping out of gear at high rpms. I might have to take it back anyway as it seems to be a little off. Finding third is a little akward now when upshifting from 2nd, but not on 4-3 downshifts. Not sure if that might be associated with the new syncro's on 1st and 2nd gear.
Anyways any input appreciated!
