Si's are pretty geary, you should almost be able to let your foot off the clutch without giving it any throttle from a stop and have it be smooth, so if it's really shuddering I'd double check the engine mounts etc. My CX shudders hard when it's cold as well, but it's been doing that for years, so I wouldn't worry about it any time soon as long as it's not slipping. Mine was worse before, but I found one of the bolts on the lower engine mount was almost falling out, and the other bolt was finger tight.
