Nothing vibrates on my car. When I up shift everthing is fine. But starting from a stop my motor just shakes like their is no motor mounts at all or something. And if I am driving at say, 75 kms and let off the gas sometimes I can hear a rattling coming from the clutch/tranny area. All of these symptoms where non existent will my stock clutch.


I'm having the exact same problems as you with my SBR3500. Have you figured out what was wrong yet?
 
What you are getting sounds like clutch chatter to me. It happens with some high performance clutches. Try to change your driving style. Try letting out the clutch a bit quicker. Be more aggresive with it.
 
I have around 2-3000kms on it now, and it fells a lot better know, maybe it is broken in a little more due to a little harder driving. It hardly ever chatters anymore and when it does you can hardly notice it.

Do you remember when you first were learning to drive a standard and you almost stalled and it, and it chattered and chugged a bit. That is pretty similar effects of what a high performance clutch is doing, If you pop up the rpm's just a bit and let it out a little faster i'll bet you it will barely chatter.
 
1. adjust your clutch pedal assembly.
2. check the master cylinder.
3. check the slave cylinder and hydraulic line for leaks.
4. shim the pivot ball and make sure it is greased adequately.
