Alright so when i engage my clutch,
and when its fully engaged it makes on metal and metal clicking noise, it only happens when i push the clutch in, and when the clutch goes as far as it can go,
when its engaged it makes no noise, i think it is just the back of my clutch hitting the floorboards,
any suggestions?

What are you talking about? How would your clutch hit your floorboard????

it doesnt,
if there was a peice of metal behind the clutch, when i press it in all the way,
it seems like its hitting another peice of metal.

No sir It does not hit anything in the back aka Bell Houseing. If anything Do you have a lightweight Flywheel ?? Lightend flywheels tend to make a chattering sound.

also it's possible that your throw out bearing could be going out.

If it's just when you push the clutch I'd say it's probably the TOB.

TOB?
ive gotten responces either that it is the throw out bearing,
the release bearing might be going.

Throwout bearing=TOB=release bearing.

Annoying to change. You have to pull the transmission off.

The slave cylinder extends when you push the clutch pedal. It's pushing on the clutch fork which is pivoting and pushes the TOB against the pressure plate to release the clutch.

That's why I think that's your problem.

If your clutch sucks, it's a good time to think about replacing it.

i dont know if i'm bring up an old thread, but do you only hear it inside of the car or can you hear it outside as well.
if it only makes the sound inside, my next question would be, did you adjust the master cylinder rod fork to the shortest length and have the excess rod just chilling there?
i have a problem where when i fully press my clutch pedal, i hear and feel a metal on metal pinching noise, and i found out that there is too much excess piece of the rod, and its pinching up against the clutch pedal. i havent cut the excess piece yet, but i know thats the problem for me.
hope it helped a little.
