Everything you described is normal. Due to dual intakes, the car seems to have a more "suction" sound. And the clutch chatter is very common. No need to worry.

Glad to see you got the 6-speed manual. Automatic is boring.

cool beans i was wondering the same thing i have a 2007 nismo with duel intakes and i kept trying to figure out is that noise was normal or not. BTW on a manual does the shifter always vibrate so much when the car is just parked or moving?

yeah, my shifter always vibrates excessively like that on my 07....i'd like to think it's from the 300+hp....can't contain itself, haha....but normal though

It's because the car can't hold the beast inside very well. It's trying. But eventually it breaks free.. And thats where speeding tickets come in....

everything you described is normal. I've experienced it in my new 07 Z and a used 06 Z i test drove.

My 06 did it, and my 08 does it.
Good call in the PPW and manual.
Enjoy the car
