B16 with ls tranny stage 2 exeddy clutch installed three months ago with new fidanza flywheel. When i start my car i can hear like a mild rubbin / grinding noise the. When i put it in gear thr noise goes away. Could it be the clutch forks or something?

 

Bump any help guys thanks

 

Try this put the car in neutral while running and put the clutch pedal to the floor if the noise goes away its a worn input shaft bearing.

 

Thank you sir you were right the noise goes away when i push in the clutch how much is an input shaft bearing installed?

 

The bearing itself is about 20$ but you need to drop the transmission and open it up to replace the bearing.

 

i paid 30 for mine online, the local dealer wanted 60. if ur paying to get it installed, id suspect like 500 bucks. u could probably get it down to a lil over 100 if u remove the trans urself

 

Ok maybe you can give me some advice a guy messaged me from kijiji saying he has an LS tranny in good condition for three hundred should i rebuild my tranny or just throw the used one in and change the input shaft bearing

 

300 is too much imo, id just change the input shaft bearing or try to find a b16 trans. I mean u can ride on those things bad for a long time.

 

Yah im in canada so i dont know ima try and get him to 250 if not ima rebuild my tranny and be done with it i cant think of anything else other than buying a used one n throwing that in man pickins are slim up here for a decent used tranny

 

well u never know if that bearing is fucked or the ips seal is leaking or something else could b broken or in the process lol

 

Lol so just rebuild what i have and keep my 300 bucks i think il go with that

 

u mean change the input shaft bearing, cause to do a rebuild is like 400 bucks n parts. might as well change the input shaft and output shaft seals too. When i did mine i had like a hundred bucks n two bearings and three seals

 

Yah im at the point now where i might aswell do all bearings and seals and check the synchros i know its gonna cost a bit but i cant afford lsd nor do i know if its worth it. Btw should i get oem synchros or carbon?

 

dude ur talking about tons of money here. its been a while but just the cheap rebuild kit i think is 300+ but yeah id get oem if u can afford it.

 

if the trans doesn't grind and you don't want to spend a lot just installing the bearing is fine.

 

I know installibg the bearing would be fine but if im already gonna have the trans pulled should i not at least have them crack er open and take a peek see if its alright
