Is this Excelerating to 7-8K or decelerating from?? There is a service bulletin out about this when decelerating from. The problem is with the OEM clutch plate rattling. Known issue I think ..Unless yours is happening while getting to 7-8K RPM. Do a search for thread "s2000 clutch rattle"

I should hace made myself more clear. THis is during acceleration.. I can't tell if it happens during decel because of all the clutch noise..
