Feels like something's rubbing, but what?!
i recently installed a new clutch, fly wheel, starter and now i added in tail pipes to my car. everything was going great and i can finally hear things inside my car with the nice tailpipes on.
however, going from a complete stop to about 3-4 mph, i feel as though something is rubbing and i can't figure out what! it's driving me crazy. I put the car in the drive way, pulled the handbrake and tried to take off and i get the same rubbing feeling at my feet and shift ****, even with the car not being in motion. Ive noticed also that when im leaving the school parking lot (upward slope), i hear a screech when i climb up the slope, kind of like a belt slip? it's really irritating me, though. what could be the issue?

yeah, this is pretty tough to explain. it's one of those things where you feel the difference. it's going back to the shop on saturday for brakes and a clutch pedal adjustment, hopefully they'll have a better time diagnosing it, but i was just wondering if anyone had any opinions
