Default 1st gear bounce

Ive looked around and havent found a thread on this. When i give it gas(clutch already in) in 1st gear or i let off the gas then try to keep a steady rpm below about 3k it will "bounce" when i say bounce its like a motorcycle with a loose chain, when the chain goes loose the engine revs higher and pulls the chain tight then the bike jerks and the process continues. I had a bad passenger axle and i replaced it hoping it was just slack in the axle but that didnt do it. Id hate to think i ts the motor mounts since their almost brand new... Anyone have any thoughts? 94 civic si hatch with b20vtec swap, aem intake and fuel rail, skunk 2 throttle body etc etc oh and ys1 big spline tranny
