Also could be that your o2's are going bad or that one of your injectors is plugged up. And when you take off from the stop sign you tend to push the gas more then you do when you are on the road. So check some of these things out. Good Luck!!

Id say it needs a tune up!!!!!

Replace Plugs,wires,cap, and rotor,fuel filter, pcv valve. That should fix it!

Sounds like it may be a fuel delivery problem....

Is it only when the clutch is being let out??
if so its
1) Glaised clutch or flywheel
2) enging to trans bolts are loose (this happend to me on my 83 280zx turbo & when you put the clutch in the engine & trans seperate as you release they slap together & away causing chatter)
