Default Grinding when car is in gear

Got a 5th Gen Prelude Sh, grinds when the car is in gear and hits about 3500 rpms, and sometimes makes a clunk clunk sound when i press in the clutch. Anyone wanna help me out here? Is it my clutch and pressure plate? Tranny? I also have a busted cv joint also. Just let me know whats up ppl.

I'm not sure it will totaly heal the grinding but I would get on that cv joint asap. It might help the "clunk clunk". Does it sound like it's coming from the tranny or the front end or what? Can you feel anything when it makes the noise?

Yea it sounds like its either coming from the tranny or just somwhere in the front end. And theres alot of vibration when it happens.
