Clutch maybe?

so when i am exiting off the free way or when i get up to about 3k rpm
and let off the gas while still in gear i get a grinding noise and it goes away when i am back down to about 2500 rpm.

I do not have any grinding when shifting in all gears, {5 speed}
and i have no slipping of the clutch. any suggestions?

thanks.

Do you have an aftermarket downpipe? It may be rubbing on the cross-member. Do you hear the same noise when going in reverse?

Thanks

have not really noticed in reverse, and i have a helix dp.
it does not make any noise too when the car is cold, only when it has been
running at normal temp. then it starts to make the grind noise.

thanks for the help.

Can you define the grind? Possibly record the sound. is it a grind with a whining noise? Does it make anything vibrate? That could be wheel bearings, coul be a busted boot on halfshaft. Could be throwout bearing... Could be a coming from motor. Might have spun a bearing which will get louder and louder. So many noises. Could be something totally simple. Let's hear it.

Is it still the original clutch and flywheel or has it been changed?
