My question is does this noise get louder over time? it is already embarrassing as it is.

I came from an evo and sti and none of those cars had any transmissions/clutch issues. Those cars clutches were smooth and had no problems.

The Z on the other hand is new and its already noisy, i can bare with it, but its damn sad when my friends are like what the hell is that noise?

Also i can sometimes hear this rattle after i turn off the car. the rattle goes on after the car shuts off for like 2 secs.
Granted I've only had my car for 3 weeks and 200 miles the chatter doesn't seem too bad to me. I don't think that it'd get any worse than what you are experiencing now. I'm coming from Evo's/STi's as well and yes you are correct there was no noise from the clutch but the Z doesn't bother me whatsover. It's a totally different animal and I'm loving it . I don't have any rattle upon turning off the car so I'm really not sure what you speak of there. Maybe a video would be helpful?
