i recently installed a competition clutch lightened flywheel(11.4lbs.) and a stage 2 competition clutch and in first and second gear there is excessive vibration in the shifter at about 8300 - 9000 rpm. it shifts smoothly into all gears, no excessive vibration in 3rd,4th,5th, and 6th, disengages smoothly and grabs like a mutha!!!! i'm just wondering if this is something inherent to an aftermarket clutch or maybe competition's clutch. also, the competition clutch STILL buzzes on decel like the stock one.

 

You should have read my views on Competition Clutch units.

NEVER again.

ACT all the way.

 

yeah i'm definitely regretting it. did yours have excessive vibration in the shifter in 1st and 2nd at about 8300rpm? what would cause this? did i install the clutch improperly? could it be a bad motor mount? is this bad for the transmission?

i'm putting my blower back on which adds vibration to the shifter. if it's this bad NA, supercharged is gunna be horrible.

 

i have that clutch buzz to. stupid honda bulletin. trying to fight it will my boss to replace it

 

i have this same problem as well with ACT. but not the vibration at high rpms. i still have the clutch buzz around 2k rpm- 4k rpm. is this just an ACT problem?

sidenote (i recently bought an S and the clutch was changed but still kept this noise).

would exedy be a good choice? because im about to get someone to change this.

 

I have a competition clutch stage 3 and it works perfect. I actually like the buzz when you decel. I'm running a 125 shot of nitrous and it hold fine and the pedal feel is very smooth.
