Anyone in Oregon want to meet up and tell me what the hell's wrong with my clutch?

I just installed a brand new Spec stage 3 carbon and now it seems like my whole rear end is going to pop out. The flywheel has been resurfaced and I tightened all the bolts to spec using a star patteren. I need someone to tell me if this normal clutch chatter. I've posted on many forums and all say this teeth crunching chatter is normal. I just need someone with some experience with clutches to drive my car.


I've just installed the twin turbo with all the piping and FMIC but it kind of sucks when I take off from a red and it sounds like I have a loose truck bed attched

I live in Salem BTW

sounds like chatter what gears do you have out back?

theres two versions of the spec 3, one chatters a lot more then the other.

This is an RX7 BTW with an LT1. The gears are stock 410's.

The chatter is so bad, when I down shift to go into a turn it feels like the rear tires are hopping around. I just really need someone to test drive this, I know it's not normal and it's hard to try to explain yourself over the internet. It's just horrible!!

with 410s the chatter shouldnt be that bad, some one will have to test drive it, could it be a suspension issue?

mine was pretty bad when she was new, even when I would down shift, if I didn't pop the clutch out real fast the rear would chatter, now I still get some chatter in reverse & if I'm half a sleep & want to take off up a hill on a hot day when the brain aint working :) then there will be a bit there.

Again, when she was new it was quite a bit worse, mostly in reverse & if I'm trying move while turning from a stop.

Matt.

how long did it last? I'm on 100 miles and it has either gotten worst or it's the same

It will take about 600km to really break in. I just broke mine in and it is a lot better now.

LOL I just got back from Salem tonight....was down there working today.
