Clutch burn after new clutch install
I changed my clutch out on my 2004 s2000 replaced it with a OEM clutch. Now my clutch pedal is firm as hell but the actual issue is that now when I drive and im at a stop or when i get home i can smell my clutch burned during the ride

Good deal for no slippage. Seems like a faint smell and that can occur on new clutch installs. Give it a hundred miles or so and I bet it will go away. Let it seat or bed in.

My new oem and act clutch install (new pp, flywheel, disk, plus bearings, guide, etc) gave faint friction material smeall for the first several weeks of use (500-1k miles). Then it went away and has been perfect since.
Of course, whenever you replace a part, you're hyper sensitive to noises and smells and anything abnormal related to whatever you worked on. So you tend to detect things you'd otherwise never pay attention to.
Unless its strong smell, its probably normal, and you being hyper sensitive.
