Ok,

The car has been doing this for awhile now, and I'm damn sure it's not normal.

On occasion, but occasion I mean being more common over time, my car makes a squeak when I engage the clutch. It's definitly not the pedal, and it's not me spinning the tires. It's gotten louder, AND more common as time goes on.

Discuss.

Sounds like a throwout bearing going out.

you know mine did the same thing... and it did it whether or not the car was on or off... does it matter for you?

banka87

Na...only when the car is moving?

Is it only happening right as you start to accelerate in 1st? If so it's your headers. Same thing happened to me until I tightened them down really well. It still does it occasionally.

banka87

No ****...I could swear it happened before the headers, but I'm not POSITIVE

IknowI was trippin ***** when I first heard it. Tighten down the connecting bands and see if that makes a difference

I totally agree! With a manual trans, usually only when releasing the clutch, you get squeal (similar to a belt slipping), that is an indication of a throw out bearing going south. Headers will not do anything when depressing or releasing the clutch.
