Hey! I’m Rahz from Wellington NZ. I have a deep love and appreciation for RB’s and Im so happy to finally be here :) 

my question is:

We’ve just done a new clutch (D1 Racing) change on my turb’d R33 and bled the clutch but when it’s driven at a low speed in a higher gear it creates a low rumble vibration and noise. We’re trying to figure out what this is. Everything has been tightened and torqued to spec. 
Has anyone had this issue before or know what it might be? 

Thank you

Doe that clutch plate have a solid or sprung center?

Spring :)

 Well there goes my first theory.

Here's a silly question, did you previously drive at low speed in a high gear? Or are you trying to find weird noises?

An internet diagnosis of a noise is pretty hard, especially one that doesn't seem catastrophic or even to be concerned about.

Hopefully it all checks out when you dig deeper. Typically straight after doing things you tune into noises that were normally there, but your mind makes you think the worse. opposite of when people change their oil and feel like the car is heaps faster!

I'm pretty sure my car picks up 50kw after an oil change :)

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
