I bought my 2003 G35 coupe, 6 speed, without realizing a bunch of appearance parts were missing, and also before noticing there was a fair amount of annoying interior damage. I'm midway through repairing a tear in the leather seat, just gotta color match and seal it so there's that hah.
Everything runs perfectly save for a clutch rattle at idle, that goes away when the clutch is depressed which I'll be addressing soon but for now my concerns are mainly cosmetic.
Anyway, hi!

 

Welcome aboard, check out the stickies at the top of each forum section, tons of useful information, use the search button or google search with G35DRIVER in the search because nearly every possible question has been answered somewhere Post some pics of your vehicle!

 

From what I've read on these forums, a small clutch rattle at idle is normal for OEM clutches and is nothing to worry about. It gets louder with lightweight flywheel/clutch combos but doesn't mean there's an issue. My car does it, and everything works great here as well.

 

Yeah I should post a vid sometime of the chatter on mine, LW flywheel is LOUD lol.

 

Too bad I have a 5AT and a congenital hearing disability. I'd love to try out this noise. But I really couldn't turn down a 2006 coupe with 26.5K miles....

 

Hi any parts you need let me know

 

For cosmetic parts its always safe to say check out your local junk yards, there is also an app called row52 that junk yards use, most of them post pictures so you can see if the part you want is damaged already or not.

 

Hi Caiti03, "Welcome to the G35 Driver forums!" Like the previous members posted, read all the stickys at the top of the coupe page there's 14 years worth of knowledge right there. The chatter you're hearing is your transmissions throw out bearing, they get worn, dry and make that noise. Post pic of your ride, everyone likes to see new members G35's.
Again welcome, enjoy the ride...Gary

 

Thanks a ton guys, I'm definitely gonna check out that app. I was gonna hit up a junk yard but it seems like none near me have any coupes.

 

Hey I'm new too! My clutch chatters as well, it's actually normal for them unfortunately

 

Careful big fella.........
