Clutch Shudder
Hey guys!
So I just changed my clutch to Competition Clutch Stage 3 Segmented Ceramic Clutch Kit. I initially wanted stage 2, but 86speed had to bump me up due to inventory issues. When I was inquiring about the stage 3, they said it would be similar to stage two. Knowing that it will be an aggressive clutch, I took the bite, and went ahead to get the Stage 3. So after 600-800 miles of break-in period, I started to feel the clutch shudders (I think that's what it's called). The whole car would shake, as the clutch tries to grab in. It's like it's about to stall, but not stalling. Sometimes I have to go to 2500-3000 rpms to lessen the effect. Is there another way to lessen the shudder? My other mods are basic bolt ons: intake, exhaust, OFT Stage 1 tune. I know it won't go away since it's an aggressive clutch. And would it break/affect other components of the car? Thanks in advance!!! 2013 Scion FRS @Exrald.frs

Replace it with a new stock clutch because you aren't producing near enough torque to require anything more.

So it should lessen when I get more torque?

I get it, though. At least go back to a full-face single disc. That chatter is super bad for the transmission over time. Another point regarding higher holding torque. The stock clutch was spec'd with the strength of the transmission in mind. It's meant to protect it. I still recommend staying stock until you know for sure it won't hold. You can drive with a sub-par clutch for quite a while. I did on my 240Z. Just nursed it in 4th and 5th until I had time to swap it.

Also keep in mind that the ceramic pucks will wear more quickly than the oem organic material. Good luck with it.

I tried. But it causes a shakier/shudder engagement. I was driving around today, and have been babying it. I think I'm starting to get used to the new engagement and gas feed. Hopefully, it doesn't break anything lol 2013 Scion FRS: TOM'S Tail lights // Raceseng Ashiko Weighted Shift Knob // TEIN Flex Z Coilovers // ARK Grip Exhaust // PERRIN Cold Air Intake // EBC Stage 5 Slotted Rotors //EBC Yellow Stuff Brakes // CWest Lip Kit //WEDSSPORTS Wheels // J's Racing X Teramoto T-Rev // Open Flash Tablet // Competition Clutch Stage 3 //Verus Clutch Fork and Billet //Cusco GT Wing // Tomei UEL Header

That's got to be aggravating ...... Here is what Bubba suggests (since the clutch people upsold you to a too hairy of a clutch). Order a new OEM clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, TOB and aftermarket clutch fork. After all the parts come in, follow this DIY: Then send the burnt up clutch (under warranty) back for a full refund. Install OEM stuff. When and if you go FI, just don't drop the clutch or do burnouts ..... humfrz for Bubba |

Omg. I would trip out if I was the guy driving. But if that will help me get a full refund of the clutch I bought, I might. Lol JK. My "nice side" would stop me from doing it. 😁 2013 Scion FRS: TOM'S Tail lights // Raceseng Ashiko Weighted Shift Knob // TEIN Flex Z Coilovers // ARK Grip Exhaust // PERRIN Cold Air Intake // EBC Stage 5 Slotted Rotors //EBC Yellow Stuff Brakes // CWest Lip Kit //WEDSSPORTS Wheels // J's Racing X Teramoto T-Rev // Open Flash Tablet // Competition Clutch Stage 3 //Verus Clutch Fork and Billet //Cusco GT Wing // Tomei UEL Header
