Ok, i just recently replaced my old t-5 with a new z spec t-5, put in a new king cobra clutch, resurfaced the flywheel, and replaced the pilot bearing. Now, from around 2000 to 3000 rpms i get a horrible vibration. i parked the car and tried revving in in nuetral, and it does it with the clutch in or out. Now when im driving down the road in 4th gear at around 2500 rpms and the vibration is terrible, i can let the clutch out and give the engine a little rev and let it back in and the vibration sometimes completely goes away. Does anyone have any idea what this might be? Bad pilot bearing?

If the pilot bearing was bad. The noise would go away when the clutch was in. Check the adj on the clutch cable it mite be needed to adj in or out.

well i pulled the trans back out to find the the actual bearing part of the pilot bearing had been pushed deeper into the crank, leaving just the outer part to hold the input shaft. atleast its a cheap parts haha
