Ok, I finished my 6bolt swap on my 95 eclipse gsx, but one big problem that is bothering me is this weird noise when I let off the gas in any gear or in neutral. The noise stops when I give the car gas. I am thinking that is has to do something with my lightened flywheel. Can anyone help me determine this noise? Or give me tips to help narrow down what it could be? Flywheel, clutch or throw-out bearing, or possibly something else? Thank you all for all the help everyone has given me on this long journey!
 
Rear differential bushings maybe? Those could make a kinda grinding sound when coasting in gear. Mine do, I just deal with it.

Does it sound like it is coming from the bottom/rear? Usually a rear bushing somewhere will cause that type of sound...
 
Could it cause any problems??? it makes the grinding noise even out of gear... Just coasting. It stops when I go below like 15mph.
 
what does the noise sound like. a taping or something else. need to know that. and the any way it would be the flywheel i would think is if it was hitting the starter or it was engaged still.
 
It is a very fast clicking/grinding noise. Almost sounds like the flywheel COULD be hitting the starter. I just dont get why it stops when i give it gas or go below like 15mph?
 
I amreplacing the seals in the transfer case and transmission thursday, because it is leaking tranny fluid. The noise is still there when I push in the clutch, but seems to lighten up slightly when I have it pushed in.
 
ok, I will check it out when I change out the seals. Thank you all for the help!
