Default Vibrations after clutch, mounts install

So i got vibrations and its not the good vibrations by marky mark..

I recently had a RXT clutch with a steel flywheel, tick master cylinder, hinson motor and trans mounts and new fluid put in the trans ( mine was brown and sludgy )

But now there is quite a bit of vibration mostly notice it engaging first gear which seems rather more annoying now, i either let off too much or not enough cant find the happy medium. I also notice enaging first seems to be far more grabby idk if thats how its is now with the RXT since totally diff design compared to stock. This is my first twin disk and after market clutch in any car i have owned. So just tell me im retarded and get used to it lol. thanks

The combination of a larger bore master cylinder that makes the engagement window smaller as well as solid mounts that heighten the transmission of NVH makes driving a ceramic friction material clutch more tricky than stock for sure, hope that helps.

A new clutch and also added hardware that makes the clutch more sensitive sounds like it is causing clutch chatter. Give it some time to break in.
