I have vibrations from the clutch pedal for some reason.

The flywheel and clutch have just been taken out, fully balanced and machined etc and the car is heaps smoother at any revs and any throttle position but the clutch still vibrates heaps.

What can the problem be??

Thanks

It's a brand new daiken exedy heavy duty clutch
I don't know if it's a new pressure plate or not??? Should it be?

Everything was taken out already and balanced/machined

So this is an issue only after the new clutch was put on?

Its best to change the pressure plate as well....but if its bad, you should take it back and get them to have a look at it. Might be the pressue plate.....or release fork problem.

Wearing it in...
I will be honest I didn't really wear it in very gently but at the same time I didn't do stupid things. I launched softly but I did floor it in gear. I didn't really slip it or sidestep it too much at all.

The clutch came with an engine conversion from GPC. Charlie already took everything out but problem is still there. Apparently everything has been checked and is ok but I am not sure about that
