[@z_855turboR]

Like I said before, I like everything here because is very real. I think of at list once a week that craziness when you were prepping Matt's Z for comp haha I'm still kinda sorry that you have to work full time, since you are so passionate about making videos. Oh well..

[@DriftHappy]

Thank you! And that’s life, maybe one day I can focus more on the videos but for now keep on keeping on

[@R.Ch.Experiments]

very good tips man, thanks for it!

[@michaelhite1433]

It seems like all the drift channels I watch, they all live in Florida.

[@wirekat]

Noisy throwout is ok for a while but your clutch pedal?

[@nd_drfter2040]

Hey I think I got the same issue going on but when u were pushing that clutch in an if you rev your car would you still hear that tick?

[@wpafreddy]

Broooo did you ever happen to fix the chatter/shaking at 12:40? My 350 does this too sometimes but it seems like the looseness is coming from the rear end. Just curious if you think it may have anything to do with axles and/or the differential?

[@wpafreddy]

I also have a single mass flywheel, & stage 2 clutch but that chatter only happens to me sometimes. Rare to the point that I’m convinced it can be fixed . But shit fam When it does happen my whole fucking car shakes😂😂

[@dapperdanbuilds]

Yay! A Marco video! We know you're busy! Keep it up, man!

[@jacobharmon2085]

Keep it up homie. Always awesome content.

[@bloodblitzowns11]

My automative 350z has a similar noise coming from the same area. But mine is auto, any thoughts?

[@louie88580]

I’m wondering the same thing for my G37 IPL, exact same noise and location with no answer. At least our car are driving???

[@adamkondeh5950]

@@louie88580 same here don’t know what it is maybe trans

[@fernandogarciaortiz8708]

I just bought an Infiniti G35 and I have the EXACT SAME PROBLEM and my throttle body is missed up, I’m about to started crying cause its just a great car, got to get to work!!!

[@ramezfekry6081]

Did you find the issue ?

[@Frank_Karbo]

Help!! I can feel my clutch engagement start at 1/4 of my foot to the floor. Randomly recently my transmission is locking me out of all gears when i turn it on and grinding if i force it. at first i could mess with it and it would go into gear but now it will not, ive never had a single synchro grind when shifting accept for when i forced it when this problem started. It started with reverse now its all gears. Any thoughts? I ordered a new master cyl and slave. I have a stage 3 clutch w 31k on it never has slipped on me. Could it be simple as adjustment? Or slave? Pedal doesnt stick to the floor but grab point doesnt feel stiff like before i swapped my cd009 trans in. Any help much appreciated 🙏🏼 also it goes into gear perfectly fine when car is off so trans isnt locked or internally shifted

[@chrismccallson9436]

Hey I had the same clutch. You should switch to a single cast throw out not the press in bearing

[@DELINQUENTZ]

So what was the initial cause of the chatter sound?

[@ramezfekry6081]

Mine it auto and make the same noise any advice ?

[@danield02]

My Z had that noise yesterday.. I was going up my drive way in reverse.. held it to where the ticking got really loud then boom clutch pedal down and smoke came out the engine bay😭

[@reidbtable]

Similar sound my 370 makes at idle below 1000 rpm. Only ocurs at idle not above 1800.

[@Elian_Zed]

Thank god I stumbled upon this video, I was depressed for a sec.

[@Flemo91]

Timing chain tensioner? I hear our DE engines have that occasionally...im looking for the sound online..kinda scary

[@jamesmcphail7948]

Great vid. How is the ebay clutch holding up? Would you recomended one for a daily/ weekend track car?

[@DriftHappy]

Still working great

[@bryanalcantar8506]

Was it the transmission that was bad as well ?

[@RobMartinez1993]

I have the same question did he really need to swap trans ???

[@coty36999]

I had a Ford 350 do this to me before

[@beverett591]

He reminds me of Adam Sandler with the way he talks

[@eleazarsanchez2639]

It was over extended thats why it would not pop back

[@DriftHappy]

That’s what I thought too but if it was over extended then usually you don’t have power to the wheels which I still did, weird

[@teoshineent.9244]

How well is that XTD clutch & Flywheel working?

[@DriftHappy]

It shattered the pressure plate in 3 places! Lol but it was on a 4th gear clutch kick with nitrous, otherwise it worked great! Also lasted about a year of abuse

[@Skyfallsi]

Its how mine is except its auto and it stops when i start to gas it

[@davidholman214]

My auto is the same way when I put it in gear it goes silent

[@luckduck5031]

I dropped the clutch and did a pull and after there was a really bad knocking noise I drove it home and the noise is still happening when I pushed the clutch in

[@louislopez1026]

Did u ever fix it and if so what was it

[@chadimazigh4346]

The same thing is happening to me. My clutch was acting up then it went into limp mode and started making that ticking sound I also got a cam shaft position sensor code. Could it be the same problem?

[@Lol-yf5wz]

SAME HERE right after i replaced my clutch and fly wheel at a sketchy shop

[@trent.johnson8744]

@@Lol-yf5wz SAME SHIT HAPPENED TO ME NOW MY CAR HAS THIS SOUND

[@tomahoks]

But it was clutch.

[@DriftHappy]

Tried to show it right at the beginning of the video so people don’t get mad at me lol

[@abymondesir23]

I went drifting other night for 30 seconds then at the end of my drift engine light came on & car shut off then wen I started it in idle car sound strong but wen I rev it made this same sound. (Plenty of oil) help me??

[@DriftHappy]

If car shut off then you may have run it dry
