Before you buy a new clutch, I'd suggest bleeding the system just in case. I went through shuddering and slipping over the last few years and it held up fine. Tried to do a burnout one time and really scored the clutch. It would shake like crap when I'd start up, but cleared up after a few weeks.
Replaced it at about 77,000 miles and it still wasn't shot. Flywheel was frozen, but the clutch wasn't completely gone.
