Default Back Into The Shop Tomorrow

Something is going on with my car. After my friend installed my clutch for me it's been making weird noises. Alot of old noises went away like the throwout bearing noise and everything but now my car will make a rubbing sound in the rear when im going from a dead stop. It only happens when im completely stopped and then go from a stop sign or red light ect..

Also, when breaking in the clutch i was told to ease it into full throttle which i did, well the first time i did it i was at atleast 200 miles into the breaking period and i heard a weird noise around 3k rpms, it sounded like something was shaking inside my dash board or it could be right under where i sit. Also, when i hit 4k the line bounced like i was topping out or something! It only did that once and it hasn't since. Today i did a little race and it made the shaking noise once again.

While breaking in the clutch i had alot of trouble driving it, the clutch was burning from time to time and the past couple of days i smelt it burning realllllly bad. But for atleast a week straight i was driving it fine! Could something during the installation cause my clutch to be really hard to drive? The pedal is back to being easy and not really really stiff.

Don't be a smart *** and say i just can't drive, because IMO i drove a 5 speed really really good until this new clutch. And now its acting up..
