I think maybe the snout got scored from the original bearing and the grease has worn off, because I did not replace that part the first time the transmission was dropped.
When you did the clutch did you also replace the flywheel? Would you say the Exedy clutch introduces a bit more vibration than the stock OEM clutch?

Even though my bearing failed after I took off from a stop sign, the snout wasn't damaged and I'm still using the original one. It can't hurt to replace it though as I know other users clearly needed to replace theirs.
When I first did the clutch I actually had the flywheel resurfaced. It cost me $80 to resurface when an exedy replacement flywheel was like $120, so I did that for my second replacement.
And yes I did notice the Exedy clutch having more vibration than the OEM clutch. I've recently learned it's really not the same quality as OEM, and I'll for sure be doing an OEM next time thanks to your thread haha.
