IF the noise goes away when you depress the clutch it's the throw-out bearing (clutch release bearing) ... it can be noisy like that for a long time before it becomes a problem.
Typically this is nothing to worry about - replace it next time you do the clutch ... and then wait three months for the noise to come back LOL.

uhhh this plate thing, can i remove it or do i have to have one in there??
seeems like this plate is pushing down so hard, when i shift from N to 1, it is a bit hard to shift compare to stock.
i can move from 2-3-4-5-R easy..
