Clutch Chatter

[SupraDerk]

I just put in my Spec Stage 1 clutch and this thing gives me clutch chatter like a freakin beyotch in first. Last night when I took it on it's maiden driven I STALLED the freaking car. I haven't done that in atleast 5 years.

I know you can get it to go away by adjusting the way you drive, but it's sooooooooo freaking hard, haha. I was just wondering how many of you out there run into clutch chatter and if it goes away any when the clutch is broken in.

Also, I searched and have been reading about it here and other places, just kind of wanted to make a thread that was easier to find for the searchers too :naughty:

If the disc doesn't have Marcels (wave washer between the friction surfaces) it's chatter, this will settle a bit as you adapt to it and it breaks in!

My OS Giken is a Solid centre Ceramic Twin and chatters like a bastard but now I drive around it and it's not too bad!

haha, good to know! I guess I'll just have to keep driving and adjusting. But it's so embarassing when you have a couple of hot girls pull up and notice you're in a Supra...and then you drive away bucking like crazy, haha

LOL my old ACT Street clutch only really did it in reverse so I didn't look like a gumby too often !

If it does have the spring, the disc is slightly warped. That can happen easily during installation if you are not lined up perfect before trying to stab the trans.
