Worn pressure plates. On new clutches it's usually because of the high clamping force. When you lightly let of the clutch it wants to grab instead of slip and in turn causes chatter. Some clutches do that cuz they're just crap.

 

have you been tuned at all?

 

Re-Read mine. I was askign why you were jerking it at such low speeds AND in traffic, so many people can see. Jerk on the Highway on long trips if you must in light traffic or at night so no one can see you.


LOW SPEED, in traffic, you aughta be ashamed.

 

I wait til I get home

 

ROFL!
my bad dude
all these people riding my *** today in the office, i failed to catch the humor.
i get F for the day.

 

nope, stock tune

 

Can you start out in 2nd to help this?

 

Not a good idea. You'd be putting more stress on the motor. Try riding out the clutch just a little more than normal.

 

yeah, that's what i do.
just sux cause i drove friend's STi and there was no chatter or jerking (not as much jerking). hers was also 2005.

damn STi's and their perfect trannies.

 

It's probably your stock clutch. Your gonna have to swap it out sooner or later. But if you go with a good aftermarket clutch, usually you have to get used to driving it all over again. It took me a day or so to get used to my ACT.
So she let you drive HER sti huh?

 

1.) Get a large bore V-Twin "sportbike" preferrably a Ducati
2.) Get in slow traffic, like you've experienced
3.) Learn the art of the roll-on / roll-off and fine motor control
4.) Smile and be happy

The only other way I can think of is getting somehow an eccentric throttle plate wheel. You'd have to provide a ton of foot movement to get the first 1/4 of it open, but then it'd move in such a way as to open quickly from 1/4 open to WOT.

i think it's almost like that with every manual car, u just have to know and feel the car. it's hard to explain but i know what you're talking about since im always stuck in nyc traffic.

 

I dare not bring my evo to NYC. Screw that. Traffic sucks and people drive like maniacs.

 

its because we have low compression motors.. thats why you get the bucking.. its just the motor struggling to go in low rpm at low speed... its not ur clutch or any of that ****.. it happens in all our cars.. i get it worse due to my cams.. just slide the clutch more to get rid of the bucking..

 

it happens to me also, but I've noticed that to drive the evo smooth you need to really learn the clutch and have to know all the right spots
