Has Anyone Experience Shudder In R33 Series 2

[LatinR33]

Hey guys,

A mate of mine has a car similar to mine and when the motor vehicle is cold mostly and reversing out of garage with the clutch a little bit under friction point the underneath of the car begins to shudder and goes away with clutch is pushed in. When doing it again while accelerating it does not do it.

Once warm its pretty much fine. Any ideas?

Thought it could be the clutch even though it doesn't slip, could this have something to do with gearbox? Not too sure if anyone has experienced something similar I could try and arrange a video if need be.

There is also a strange slight scraping/scratching/rattling type noise which comes from underneath the car near the gearbox area when the motor vehicle is turned on and warming up this may have something to do with it but no idea. If anyone has experienced this it would be good to know what it is also.

Cheers

i have this problem too.. but when taking off in 1st when its cold... i think its the clutch because depending on the way you give the clutch, it happens.. if you rev it abit and let the clutch out, it doesnt happen.. not 100% tho

Ok then guess thats the best answer I'm going to get. Will tell him to get a clutch kit and see how things go. Supposedly clutch needs changing anyways so will see if issue is resolved.

I get that too. It almost feels like a 5puk clutch that is trying to slip. Or it feels like my ITR did with my 5puck solid center.

I think its just the way we drive, not enough rev? too much slip? Could be anything

Does he have a standard clutch or aftermarket?

My heavy duty clutch does a similar shudder noise at low rpm's. But it just needs a little more rpm i think.. i have heard numerous noises from other peoples cars with heavy clutches so I think its normal.

The clutch is standard from what I know.

Will try and get a video with sound to give you guys an idea.

Same as me, stock clutch/pressure plate. So id say its just a driving issue. It will be fine (or not an issue.. just whatever)
