After replacing the tensioner, problem remains. I'm just going to leave it alone. Hopefully, the problem will go away.
please check the how much slack and where is the arrow aiming at(on the tensioner)

Cool. Thanks for the pic. Is it normal at idle for that part to shake a little right? left to right, very slightly. I've never really looked at it before, but I'm assuming it should, and also the pulled connected to it does the same a little. It's quiet as can be though.

If your idle has a small lope to it the tensioner will shake. Push the throttle pulley a little and hold it steady in one spot. The shake should stop. You'll notice too, that if you bump the throttle a few times, the tensioner reacts to the torque. All normal. I'd only worry if it looked like it was trying to take flight. 
I notice higher millage S2000's have a small lump at idle. I'm still trying to figure that one out.
