I have an 89' hatch with the D15B1 (slow *** car).

I am experiencing alot more of this "shudder" and im wondering what the cause/fix would be? I have no clue how old the original clutch is either. It seems to happen near the end of 1st catching, then almost totally through 2nd (unless you use almost no throttle), 3rd and 4th are fine.

Do I need a new clutch? If so, how much does that run at a shop? Can I do it myself?

 

idk about whats causing it but i just switched the clutch from one motor to another and it was cake. you just need an alignment tool for when you put the new one on and most of if not all of the kits ive seen come with one, if not your local parts store will have one.

 

I have the same problem...but I had just figured it was my sub-par shifting. However, I've been having to fix a lot of things on my rex lately so I wouldn't be surprised if my clutch's age was starting to show.
