Default Might be a clutch issue..

I have a spec 3, proper break in. hasnt seen the track yet. Since ive put the moser in ive heard a grind noise.. It only happens on take off SOMETIMES, and at low rpms if i gas it hard in a low gear 1-3 (rarely 3rd). I can also hear a SLIGHT nose when i change gears, like the disk is still rubbing the pp. I doubt its the tranny or rear because then it SHOULDNT only happen at those times.

any ideas?

EDIT..come to think of it...maybe it just needs to be bleed? i do notice after i freeway race the clutch feels like it engages in a diff spot

You should Change your fluid every year.
It gets black fast
If you want to do a real good job,
pull the Master , tear it open, and clean out the inside .
Other wise Just flush out the whole system with new stuff
