Clunk when shifting

I get a clunk when shifting from 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 over 3000 RPM when cold
The clunk happens when I depress the clutch and is from the back of the car. It does seem to be more on the right than the left and definitely in the rear

Once the car warms up , the clunk goes away or at very least a very quite clunk

I have ~ 80k on the car with the original motor mount. I looked at the CVs and all have perfect boots and no leaks. I thought it might be the motor mount, but with the problem not happening when the car is warmed up, I'm not so sure. Also there is no vibration in the car or shifter nor any movement in the shifter.

Any ideas to what the problem is?
