kershaw-350z Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 i had my light weight fly (from zman) clutch and salve cylinder fitted on tuesday and when picking the car up the garage that did the work mentioned to me that my gearbox was noisey and they thouht it was my bearings i thought nothing of it and asumed they ment the wiening noise that hr gearboxes do make but they have a point i dont know what they did but it sounds like they have droped the gearbox of the ramp or sumin obv with i lighted fly you expect some extra noise but not like this below 1500 rpm the hole thing sounds like crap like a missfireing tractor, even when i rev it on idol somtimes not all the time i get a noise like someone has chucked a bag of bolts down the stairs or your engageing the clutch with a brick i doess this everytime i try to pull away aswell and even in second gear when gon round corners its embaressing tbh i bought the fly thinking it would improve the driveability as my fly was nackerd but it seams to have done the opposit.. what do u guys think the problem could be?? it drives fline tho tecnicaly its just the noises it makes and i know it isnt the bottem end because if i rev the car with the clutch down its silky smooth and sounds just as sexy as it always does any ideas ?? many thanx alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoogyRev Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Lightened fly wheels do clatter when idling (low revs), so I think it normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kershaw-350z Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) i wouldnt say the noise im geting is normal it just seams too loud to be normal. it shouldnt sound like a missfiring tracor when i rev it on idol tho should it Edited May 17, 2013 by kershaw-350z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartynB85 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) They do get noisy with a single mass flywheel, so i've heard anyway. Why don't you do a quick vid and post that so we can hear it. Edited May 17, 2013 by MartynB85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 The flywheel can clatter, but there should be no wheiny noses HR's don't make any unusual noises as far as I'm aware. You might get a tiny bit of transmission but you get that on all cars. As said best bets a good quality sound video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kershaw-350z Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 i have driven a couple of hundred miles now but the noiser it self seams to have quietend down its still there below 1500rpm but only in 2nd 3rd or 4th etc its quiet annoing intrafic but with a little change in driving style ive got over it.. i think like you guys have said it was just clattery because of the new fly and io thinkn it was louder for a lil bit becasue of the brand new clutch i had just put it. but now i hardley notice it when driving normal it is quite loud tho if you try to pull away i 2nd from about 1200 rpm and somtimes it chatters on idel but somtime it doesnt i will leave it another couple of weeeks and report back again then and i will get a vid up The flywheel can clatter, but there should be no wheiny noses HR's don't make any unusual noises as far as I'm aware. You might get a tiny bit of transmission but you get that on all cars. As said best bets a good quality sound video i do find that my hr box wines in 1st and in 2nd a lil bit it has done on both of my cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rothers2901 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 This doesnt sound right at all. even with the installation of new parts. there shouldn't be anything really noticable. Take it back now dont wait. Post a video of the noise and you may get a definitive answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Maybe the spigot bearing got damaged when they fit the new clutch? That can cause a noise. If it's getting quieter could be wearing down as they are soft, chatter would be a side effect of a single mass flywheel. see - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/71699-i-cant-bear-this-noise-any-more/#entry1069161 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
