I've noticed that almost every other G I've listened to has a noise that I would consider normal valve train/injector cycling noise.
I don't think I've ever owned a car that I couldn't hear a slight bit of noise from the valve train.
If your oil is full and the noise isn't very loud, I would say it's normal.

Yeah the clutch plate is a noisy s.o.b When I got my G I thought I drove it to hard and then the dealer told me that the clutches in those cars are noisy anyways. My friend has a Z with a stage 3 clutch and it sounds like something is going to explode!

I swear man, with my 03 G I thought it was engine knock or something but then I realized it was just the clutch plate....you may very well be hearing the same exact thing.
