So as im driving down the street yesterday i hear this loud squiking sound. Then i noticed its coming from my clutch. At first i thought it was probably just the pedal but you can hear it well outside the car.

What do you think could be the source of this probably? Whats squiking on what?

Just throwing out a suggestion here becuase I had something like this happen to my integra. It would squeek when I was at a stop and put it in 1st to go. The issue was with my throw out bearing. Got it replaced and now it doesn't do it.

does it squeal when you clutch in? if not, then it's your throw out bearing

Kinda sounds like a rusty door opening, every time the clutch pedal is moved at all.

if you can hear it well outside the car, i would suggest that its the where the clutch fork pivots. get under there and spray some wd40 on the pivot point (make sure not to spray much inside the casing, just in case it trys to find its way to your clutch disc, kindof far from it, but dont chance it). if you are confused, your slave cyl pushes one side of it, pivoting the other side of the fork inside the transmission, depressing throw out.
