F/F type 1s
dr41s if it matter

the problem is more than half the time, when i am letting my foot off the clutch and start to give it a little gas to start moving, i get a "hop" type vibration.. what would be the 1st starting point to look at? i dont want to "shotgun" diagnos the problem, due to $$ haha.
but other then motor mounts or warped fly wheel, what are your guys/gals opinions,

note- there is one bad mount i did notice today looking at work, its on the lower right side, were the A/C comp used to be.
that one looks prety torn up. would that be the culprit? haha

thank you for your opinions:]!

Could be the mount or the clutch / transmission is starting to slip.

my better guess would be the tranny/clutch. honestly id check out the flywheel and clutch. i have 3 bad mounts lol and when i say bad i mean like damn near non existent. and i still have no problems with anything. at all.
