my clutch creaks when i push the pedal down, and most people said it was slave cylinder. well, I took the slave cylinder off and by using a screwdriver for some leverage i was manually pushing the clutch fork back and forth and it was creaking, I think its something inside the bellhousing. I went with some F1 ebay clutch, I hope its not the fingers of the pressure plate or anything. am i suppose to grease anything on the inside when intsalling a clutch that maybe i forgot? what could be making this noise?

Is the sound coming from the pedal area?

If so, it's most likely the spring on the pedal. It's very common for them to squeak...my old S14 did it. I just lubed it with some kinda lithium grease, and it went away.

xyster is right, if the squeaking is coming from inside the car it probobly is the spring. If it is coming from inside the bellhousing, it may be the pivot point or just the pressure plate. if it is the pressure plate, there isn't really anything you can do.
