Clutch engine noises?

Ok So I have a 2002 se maxima 6 Speed. When i go into second or third...

i roll down the window and from my engine, i am guessing where the clutch engages the engine parts...man i have no idea how to desribe this but i hear a chugging sound like those on older stickshift cars when they get into gear.

this is when i engage the clutch and get into gear and start to acclerate i hear this sound..

maybe you guys could desribe these sounds better.i dont know if its normal and i just didnt hear it before because i had the music on..

please help me!!! thought this was problem when i got into gear at too low of a speed..like going into third at 15 miles per hour but it happens at normal shift patterns...only in 2-3...could possibly be other gears but the speed pics up and i can no longer hear it becuase of the wind noise..anyways thanks in advance. do i need to have my clutch checked out or the whole clutch system?

whats it sound like, again?


how many miles on the car? i might lean towards motor mounts, if its a driveline windup type of noise. like when you drive a mustang in first gear.
