Default Just installed jwt clutch and flywheel now clutch goes halfway up?? 06 350z??

I recently installed my new jwt clutch and flywheel 2 days ago im still breaking it in and today i noticed the clutch engages fine but it sticks halfway up and i need to use my foot to bring it up. Everything was installed correctly and i also hear a loud chatter at idle? Is that the flywheel chatter?? The slave cylinder kinda fell but u caught it in time when i removed it from the tranny could it be broke or finally went out? Please help

More than likely bad slave, and it's very common for chatter

First is to bleed it, good chance that is the problem. Next is adjust the rod at the piston, it changes for the needs of the new clutch. Last is to rebuild the slave and master

We didnt realize it but we forgot to change the pilot bushing so could that be the problem?
