Small update:
The car is driving! I had some minor setbacks that were due to my own stupidity. I was really excited about getting things done and having not driven it for almost 3 and a half months, I made a mistake. With the OS Giken clutches, you have to have that sleeve on the throw out bearing. Well I forgot to put it on there. When you do that, it will ruin your slave cylinder.... I contacted Z Speed and they said that they could rebuild it for $150. That would have required too much down time since I wanted to drive it on the pretty days (Sun+Mon). I was able to find out that the actual slave cylinder part is an OE part for another car and picked it up at my local auto parts store Got the car back together and the ticking noise is still there Im certain its from something internal in the transmission, so I'm just going to continue to drive it until it breaks. Now the OS Giken Grand Touring twin disk clutch is a dream compared to my old 6 puck setup. It is so much easier to drive! Even the wife immediately noticed. She wanted to drive it too lol.
