I just got a new ACT Stage 2 clutch installed, model # MB1-HDSS in a 95 Eclipse GS-T. It grabs much faster than the ACT Stage 2 clutch that I had in before, but what's bothering me is that when I pull out in first gear, the car really vibrates until I have the clutch pedal fully out. If I rev the engine up to about 2000 rpm before letting the clutch out, it doesn't vibrate. Also in reverse it really vibrates when I start releasing the clutch. The old wornout clutch never caused a vibration no matter what rpm I used. Also when I downshift lets say from 3rd gear to 2nd, it also vibrates until the next gear is selected and the clutch pedal is out.
When I bought my Evo brand new and drove it off the lot, I never had a vibration issue, so I'm wondering if this is normal for a Stage II racing clutch to cause a vibration until it gets broken in??????? Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thx.
