Default please help with frc clutch

I have a 2000 fixed roof coupe that I bought yesterday, and when you are taking off from dead stop in first gear when you let out the clutch it feels like something is binding up it shifts fine through all the gears after that just feels weird at take off, no matter how slow you let it out or how fast you let the clutch out it does not feel right is not slipping or burning just kind of shakes the car a little and makes weird noise kind of like if you were backing up with your emergency brake on a little bit, like a said some sort of bind I think? any ideas would be great thanks in advance

Are you talking about chatter. A quick dadadada? Mine did that. It was the pressure plate. I just put a new clutch in to make sure I had no more problems.

Yeah man,

If you go to replace the clutch you just buy the kit, and also a new slave cylinder. The clutch kit comes with pp, disc, etc... And the Z06 clutch will fit no problem

As long as your at it. Make sure you pick the right clutch. If your going to mod your car, then you might want to think about a clutch that can handle it.
