New clutch, new noises, help! Options

[TRD6GC]

Well out of nowhere my clutch went. I put a new ACT clutch in about three days ago and it drove fine. But just today it started making weird noises and stuff. When i start off in 1st gear it shakes the car a lil. And then everytime i shift then hit the gas (or just when i am driving and let off the gas, and then hit the gas again) it feels like something slams and the car shakes a lil. And also there is a sound when i accelerate like i have a turbo spooling or something, which i do not have haha. Almost like a whinding sound, most noticeable accelerating in second gear.

Well, one of my engine mount bolts came loose and fell out. I put a new bolt in and the shaking at the beginning stoppped, but everything else still happpens. But i also remember when i put everything together my bottom rear engine mount was shot, like in two pieces. So i think that may be causing the other noises.

what version of the act did you put in there?


you need to make sure you break the clutch in for at least 500miles. that means drive like grandma.  the shaking you are feeling means that the clutch is still breaking in. also, does the sound you hear sound something like woooo wooooo ?  if so, then thats also normal during a break in period on act puck clutches ive seen

if the shaking continues for longer then 500-1000 miles, then u might want to inspect your tranny bolts to make sure none of them came loose

I bought the one that has a heavey duty pressure plate, street disc, and a new release bearing. Part #TY2-HDOO. I have been babying it since i installed it. It does not sound like wooooo woooo, it sound almost similar to what a car sounds like when you go in reverse.

Did you make sure and torque all of the pressure plate bolts down to spec? If not you will get a lot of clutch chatter. Also, make sure your mounts are all connected and not free hanging anywhere.

I know that they are tight, but not to spec. Yea i need new engine mounts. I CAN NOT find polyurethane engine mounts, i have looked everywhere. Should i just buy stock ones? or does anyone know where to get them?
