Default screeching noise when taking off from a stop...

i'm not really sure what it could be..maybe LCA bushings? i've already replaced the UCA bushings w/ the Daizen camber kit, steering rack bushings, energy suspension sway bar bushings, and new tokico shocks/struts. it's getting really annoying, almost everytime i take off from a stop and letting go of the clutch it makes a screeching sound, what could it be?? another question..after i've replaced my clutch to a Spec Stage 3 it started making rattling noise at low rpm while driving only..i've read that this is a common thing on certain clutches..is mines having the same issue or did ***** up on something?

Someone loves his burnouts. :P
It could be the clutch. I have a Centerforce Stage 1, and when let out, it makes a chirping noise. Its kind of annoying, but I don't know how to fix it. I don't think its bad for the car or anything though.

The stage 3 Spec is a pucked clutch. It could be chattering. This is because is not a sprung hub disc.

I don't know about the screeching noise though. Where is it coming from?

Did you check the tension on your accessory drive belt?

Then type the words "screeching fan belt" into google and read all about it. Ideally your seals, belts, gaskets should be from Lexus/Toyota and not the chain stores.
