Default Mysteriously the car turns off sometimes, and Clutch is too stiff

Its a ACT heavy duty clutch, i understand its suppose to be stiff, but this is REALLY heavy.

The car would sometimes turn off when i start it, while the engine is warm. Its not a electrical problem i know that, i checked most of those things. I'm thinking its the clutch, but i'm not so sure. The clutch chutters and then grips, takes a rev to like 900 to get it going sometimes. but it feels like it's about to turn off before it even goes. All the other gears it feels fine.

1. Tomarrow im gonna bleed the clutch, and see how that goes.
2. any other possible problems to why the clutch is too stiff or car turns off other then those mentioned above. Im sure theres no other problem beside that though, but god knows..

I've got a oem gsr clutch and fly wheel just incase this one goes out

Thanks inadvance

i really dont think your clutch would be causing your car to die. there is no 900 on the tach, so how do you know thats where youre taking off from? and, either way, 900??? your car would probably die. thats way to low, especially for a heavy duty clutch. have you checked your wires, and sepcifically, your rotor and coil?
