37 ft lbs for transmission to engine, and 55 for driveshaft in rear! But do I do a cross cross pattern on the transmission of what?

Finally finished mine! Just need to install the shifter and over pipe to the headers. Speaking of shifters, I installed my trd quick shifter to while I was under there

3 notes for a faster installation:
1. MAKE SURE THAT PLATE IS LINED UP
2. the interior does NOT need to even be touched. You can pull the rubber cover over the linkage and remove the pin from under the car
3. if you're careful you do not need to unplug the starter connections, just move it out of the way
4. the lower panel can be taken apart as one piece if you leave the 4 small screw bolts between the two together.

How do you like up the plate?

What step(s) take the longest? The OP mentioned it took him 9 hours however the steps don't seem to be that many. Also this video: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYsW7poYsG0"]Exedy Clutch Overview and How to Install in Scion FR-S - YouTube[/ame] makes it look super simple as well lol. Not being disrespectful, just curious.

Getting the trans back on. Also torquing the flywheel and clutch disk to spec without it spinning on you

Also take into account experience level and the right tools.

Thank goodness for this DIY guide!

The removal and install was a breeze aside from the one bolt shearing off in my down pipe. The only other thing I really had an issue with was torquing down the two 2 bolts on the transmission. There are so many things in the way, not to mention my bulky AEM strut brace as well, that it created a torque wrench fitment nightmare.

Just installed mine.. have about 200 miles on it so far. Anybody else have a harmonic rumble when decelerating / coasting in gear? I have it occur between 2.5k and 3.5k rpm, and was told by someone that it's normal it's just usually chatter or gear rattle. While I get that this is a "performance / sport" clutch, it's only a stage 1 and not harsh at all so I wouldn't expect much NVH from it, so I'm not sure about that answer, anybody else have similar issues? Was it an install error?

PS - I have the stock flywheel in

Normal. I have that happening on my stock clutch. Does the noise go away when the clutch pedal is depressed?

Yes as soon as I put my foot back on the gas pedal, or if I press in the clutch, the noise stops.

Sounds normal to me. I try a get a video recording of the noise for you and then you can confirm.

Well that video in post #89 pretty much showed me that this is a job that's beyond my driveway mechanic skill set. Bummer...
