First off, no I probably shouldn't post it in this forum, but given I think the problem is somewhat obscure... and this forum gets the most traffic, it's going here, at least till I get an answer, then I'll move it :)

Anyways, question, or rather problem is:

When I start out slow in first gear, let out the clutch, it feels like the whole car shudders. I'm wondering if this is normal... or perhaps it's because I still don't have my rear poly motor-mount insert in yet? Or maybe it's even because I put in poly mounts period. I don't think it's anything serious as it's always done it, and it doesn't shudder at all if I let out the clutch with the rpm's up a little bit higher, or let it out slower. Anyways, any suggestions ideas people? I really should get in the rear mount insert regardless but haven't had the time to get to the proper tools to get it done. And since I don't even know if that's the cause... I haven't been in any huge rush.

meaning what? Needs to be resurfaced? Not a big deal? Is it ok this way? Doesn't seem to really matter unless I launch real slow like as I said. And bishass now I'm never getting any responses!

Stock clutch and flywheel or is it aftermarket?

sounds like it's just your poly-mounts.. it's gonna shudder the entire car with a slow clutch release (read: low throttle) on take-off.. especially if you have a higher performance clutch.

thank you blueshift, that's what I thought, and was hoping for. I have a lightened flywheel and an act stage-3 clutch.
