Edm,
About ten days I was driving, I let of the clutch slowly and the car started shaking like crazy. It's happened a few times since, but only happens when I let the clutch out slowly. The clutch is strong and I don't think it's deteriorating because I have no trouble launching. I think it could be an eng/trans mount but I'm not sure.
 
when was the last time you switch your clutch?
 
100% installed correctly?

the jolt/vibration might be from bad or missing alignment dowel pins.


Have you changed the fluid? (syncro shift)

Good Luck

does the whole car shake like your not giving it enough gas(not that your aren't) or is the clutch chattering? have you tried adjusting the master cylinder rod under the dash?
 
Sounds like your clutch is chattering, did you have your flywheel resurfaced when the clutch was installed ?
