The clunk you hear is more than likely not the tranny but more so the driveshaft/drivetrain backlash.

Its "normal", drivetrain slack in the driveshaft and axles supposedly. After a 1-piece driveshaft and differential bushing installation I haven't heard it since. The bushings alone reduced it slightly, gone completely with the driveshaft.

good luck and i wish it nevers come back to your car
my car is currently at the dealer for this concern, another concern if i got vibration in the clutch pedal at the top position i believe, when warm or probably cold too( i always warm her up pretty well) what does it means? i read that it could be wrapped pressure plate( i hope not) i never abused her thanks |

Is there is any wear if i unintentionally continue reproducing this sound?
how does it clunk? what parts come into contact with each other? |

I get the same clunk, I also had the clunk when I had my GTO. It's just the drive shaft and it's very normal. Go to a one piece drive shaft and all of your problems will go away.
