Default Gearbox BUZZ

My gearbox is buzzing like crazy especially in 3rd and 4th gear.

I plan to replace the clutch very soon and I am curious to know what the actual cause is that makes it buzz so much!

Is it the ball bearing ?

I am looking at buying an aftermarket clutch kit (Exedy Hyper Single 6puk) and replace the part that causes the buzz with a "NEW" OEM part.

What is the ACTUAL cause of this buzz? What do I must replace with the new OEM part from Honda???

The springs in the clutch disc cause the buzzing. I got a competition stage 3 and it still buzzes so dont think an aftermarket clutch will fix the situation.

as danks2k said, the springs in your clutch arent dampening the vibrations from the drivetrain, so when your on decel, (and the gears aren't under load) the tranny starts to rattle around.

New OEM clutch take care of the problem. The new clutch was redesigned.
