The mounts I think are the reason for most of the clunking while your vehicle is in gear at a steady speed. Our engine needs more support for 'all that' torque but you might try out an ETD just for the hell of it.

Could be the backlash of the trans. itself, who knows. Nothing in my car at least, sounds like it's secure. Re-sale is going to be a beeyotch on this car.

The wierd thing is i only hear the sound at the exact moment i disengage the clutch and press the gas pedal. Im if wondering if this is even the same sound everyone else is experiencing.

i had that with a bad mount or improperly placed.. as you press the gas, the car pulls a lil then clunk.. thats like a motor mount problem

at first i thought it wasnt coz we visually inspected it and nothing seems wrong, cranked it on the air and nothing is hitting.. then i suspected it was my clutch, find it hard to believe coz the symptoms feels like a mount problem.. i bought new motor mounts and the mechanic said there was a bad mount..

Hmmm so something internally is stressing out in the stock mounts...I assume...?

not sure how it broke, it was perfect before my clutch install.. i the closest possible i can remember is that the installer jacked up the motor and the tranny and most likely they squeezed one of the mounts to hard

Oh, so the mounts broke and started clunking after your clutch install then?

yup after the clutch install.. under normal use, no accident.. there is a slim chance for it to break.. maybe tightening factory bolt will solve it like some others did

I know im a little late, but, I had the same thing as well. Mine actually turned out to be my cold air intake hitting the body when the the motor would torque. I build a piece similair to what dr.isotope sells and that took care of the problem. If you dont have a cai...dont know what to tell you...lol.
