Default new to the scoobys

Iv just purchased my first 2001 bug eye scooby after having alot of jap cars such a s13, s14a Im not that clued up on the scooby.

my car is fitted with a 6 puck ceramic paddle clutch Im concern becuase when pulling away sometimes i get a sreetch when lifting the clutch and moving off. Im still getting use to driving it with a paddle clutch so it could just be me I find you have to match the revs more to pervent judder ect.

Iv never driven a car fitted with a paddle clutch so dont know what to expect apart from I know there ment to be very on or off, the guy I brought the car off said its just vibration form the puck and nothing to worry about

is the car heavily modded?? is it a wrx or sti??
Seems a bit overkill to fit a clutch like that (btw will be quite snatchy) when an exceddy organic stage 1 clutch is usually a good replacement.
Info dude!!
