On another question but releated to the clutch; when I am in first gear up my drive I depress the clutch to slow into the garage. When I do that there is a "clang/bang" at the transmission. Sounds like it is banging against a heat shield or the exhaust. Is it something I am doing wrong/normal/or need to take in?
I have a NISMO (just for reference). When I have the clutch in, everything is nice and quite. Clutch out (not in gear), I hear all sorts of stuff which is wierd to me. As expected, clutch out and in gear (1st mostly), I hear chattering even if I feather the engagement.

I have been successful at reducing the madness and a pretty smooth take off by blipping the throttle a time or two before I release the clutch. It seems like I had to do the same with my old 240SX, but it had a clutch upgrade.
