Default JWT clutch/flywheel question

Sup everyone,

I don't know if someone already posted this already. I just put in my JWT clutch and flywheel on my car about 3-4 months ago. It make a raddling noise, especially if im between cars or by the wall you can hear echoing. Is this normal? My car is not losing any power whats so evern which i am really happy with the performance. i heard that it will be loud. is this true?

Thanks

C-LOS

yes, normal. Rattling seems to get louder depending how hard you have been driving the car. Like when it heats up.

What if the rattling was inconsistent? Would there be something wrong?

Clutch's glaze when you use them roughly. Even for a couple raching shifts if you use your clutch more your glazing it and it will feel shotty but if you just let the clutch go your messing up your tranny. you might notice if you slam your brakes 1 time they will be glazed and also feel shotty haha. But yes jwt clutch and flywheel are known for rattleing.

Yep, normal. One thing I don't like about the JWT but heck the performance is good. I'm saving for something else though. I can't stand the rattle anymore.
