Default 97 civic cx jerking when up or down shift

I have searched and couldnt get a definitive conclusion. Most say the jerking is driver error, I drive manual all the time so its not my driving which some may suggest. This is the only manual I have ever drove to act this way.

I just purchased a stock 97 cx with the d16y7. When I upshift or downshift there is a slight jerk to the right or left, not fowards or backwards. Somewhat of a feeling when you hit a patch of water and some "skate" for a split sec. Ive heard it could be the clutch, but it seems like it may be axels or something, any ideas?

Check the engine and transmission mounts.
