Car drives fine and everything but every once in a while It smells of burnt clutch.

that's what I thought, but it just started a week ago. Brakes would drag for the first week after you install them or so. Maybe bad calipers?

Alternator bearings smell really bad when they go too. I would check all the brakes though especially if you just changed em. Put it up on stands and spin the wheels, see if any of them drag.
