i had the same experience. clutch (and car) was vibrating + pulsing/ 
shuddering  when i let it out. felt like  BAD slippage. it started out 
slight and got worse over about a week. it also made a fun squealing noise 
when the pedal was at the floor (clutch disengaged), that went away when i 
let the clutch (pedal) out.  the squealing was the seized t bearing riding 
on busticated pplate fingers.

turned out i broke several "fingers" off the pressure plate due to the 
seized bearing. they made a nice "schrapnel in a blender" sound.

NICE!

do the master + slave cylinders while the tranny's out.
