Awful Noise...Bad Clutch or Flyweel?

ok problem soleve dude, i have a 2000 si and i had the same thing happen to me but it was only from 4th to 5th on the hwy, the way i fixed it was i got a gear oil change not engine oil change but our 5 speeds do have tranny oil, make sure you get Honda tranny oil "only" or you can wear out the syncros and gears, i rather have honda do it since they can pump the fluid in up to you. but yea it cured my baby

Have you noticed the same noise but quieter when first taking off or in neutral with the foot off the clutch?* This will be quieter then the one you describe but should be roughly the same noise if it is a bearing in the tranny. I had the input bearing go bad on my tranny and it made an awful noise at high rpm's and also in neutral.* Just an idea to check.

That's exactly what's happening. I guess I'll have that checked out...do you remember roughly how much it was? Thanks for the advice.

Sounds like a syncro or main shaft problem to me (like dub said). A clutch or flywheel wouldnt do this to you, if your clutch was bad your car would not shift well or would slip in gears badly...sounds like a tranny prob man...
