Grinding Noise From New Twin Plate Clutch

[azamataz]

Last week i had an exedy twin plate fitted to my GTR however its making a grinding/scraping sound when the clutch is presed in, is this normal? i know twins are supposed to make a rattle/ringing noise however it doesnt sound like a rattle at all its more of a scraping sound. The bearings were changed with the clutch aswell so i dunno if it could be them.

Also the noise is dependant on the rpm, the faster the revs the faster the scraping. Ive noticed that its louder when the climate control is on too, After i turn it off it quitens down.

So is this the noise its supposed to be making or do i have bigger problems?

my guess is it only does the sound when the pedal is depressed???

its probably just the new thrust bearing bedding into the clutch fingers

It has quietend down a bit now. Ive done about 500km on it. How long does it take to bed in?
