Lately when I let my clutch out from a dead stop I hear a loud noise. Its kinda hard to explain but its almost like metal grinding metal. I have a stage 2 ACT clutch and Fidanza flywheel. Is the clutch going out? Ive noticed that it only does it in first at a dead stop and doesnt do it all the time. The clutch holds fine in all gears and I notice nothing else wrong expect from a stop.

does it do it when the car is out of gear Or only when you are taking off and have it in 1st gear?

That'd be my vote. Otherwise the noise would more likely be constant.
Although, I've seen a badly warped flywheel making uneven contact with the clutch plate make noise. Usually acompanied by shudder upon engagement.
Its really weird though, it doesnt make the noise till I drive it for a while. The first couple of stops are fine, no noise at all. Then after I drive it a while it starts doing it almost everytime.

Yeah cause once the bearing heats up and starts squeeling it's not gonna stop until it (and it will) siezes.
How hard/costly are they to replace?
