its not really a knock, its like a rattle like a dense metal that is rubbing like something is loose, we cranked it and checked under the car and on the sides but nothing is hitting, it happens rapidly so its hard to visually see if its a loose mount or bar.. we will replace the axle first and see if its still happens..

anybody knows where to find a complete assembly diagram for the tc? maybe they reinstalled the arms and mounts and stuff wrong

^^ yeah pretty close, its good the guy was cool but I got nervous when he took some gadgets and I thought he was gonna do an OBD just to give me a hard time but i guess what he had is just a temp gun.. he just made my car idle for awhile and see if it overheats, I went inside and waited for several mins then he came and said done! whee! but he said my fans are always on that is bad and I need a better radiator or cooling (mish rad at my trunk lol) and I told him yeah I have one waiting to be installed and I told him that the fan stayed on when I made a mistake adding pure coolant in the tank but he never saw it overheat so I guess thats why he made me pass.. then we discussed about some preformance/modified talk a let him be the boss and the one who knows it all hahaha

nothing at idle, I when i pump or blip on the throttle while driving it makes that clunk, cranking i hear something rubbing, when I turn of the car i hear a clunk again, when I move from a stop or reverse I hear the clunk.. the sound of it I dont think its the clutch as what two mechanics told me, its sounds like a loose tranny or motor or prolly a misaligned bell housing..

do your make a continuous knock even at idle?

Stage 4 is great.. and I drive in Miami traffic (although I do try and limit that.. lol)

You will hear just the slightest of rattle at idle.. it's clutch chatter.. goes away with the pedal is pressed. It's very minimal though.

its not my thread, i just posted there.. its the thread by web and one by guru..

and stage 4 isnt bad at all.. it chatters very little but if you're fine with the motor mounts than you should be fine with the clutch.. motor mounts makes so much more vibrations than the one the clutch makes.. get a stage 4!

aen's got the 4 and the motor mounts...when I drove it, i did not notice anyadditional vibrations at all (I got the same motor mounts)
My issue is that at work, there is a ramp that you sit on to punch in the gate code, and I don't like rolling back cause someing is always right behind me, so I usually have half gas/ half clutch in so I'm just sitting there, no brakes. Would this be possible with this clutch?

Yes.. just need to get used to it. Make sure you get the Sprung hub.. unsprung is great for more power.. but is less forgiving.
