I like the way this car shift, I also like the short throw.
But what is the noice I here when get out of first gear?

Steps to recreate:
--drive your car in first gear at around 3000rpm,
--let go the gas,
--press the clutch fully,
--there is the loose hollow noise from underneath the car, almost like the exhaust is falling off.

Anybody hearing the samething?
Thanks for the inputs.

 

Yea, it's "normal" with our cars. I know just what you're talking about. Deaccelerate in 1st while coming to a stop sign. Depress clutch and "clunk clunk." All other manuals I've owned have done this. Don't know if there's much we can do. Someone mentioned tightening axle bolts in a previous thread...

 

Welcome to ownership of a 350Z.....

My car has sounded like this for over a year, and it is still ok, if that helps.
