Sounds like it's the throw out bearing.

Today it was getting really hard to shift into gear, then on the way into my drive way, the car started making a wierd metal to metal noise but lightly, so with all these symptoms i figured i was low on fluid so what i did was jack up the car and see if i saw anything wrong, took out the side screw on the tranny and leveled the car and a little bit came out, so i now know i had tranny fluid, i jack the car back up and start it and the car made a horrible loud grinding noise as if the flywheel was scraping on the bellhousing, lowered it and then it did for only 4 sec after start up and a little in between shifts in the disengaging part. It has been like that everytime since, on the start up and in between shifts, What cant this be? Any opinions welcome. Iam getting really tired of my car i think i am going to sell it and get a new rsx type-s. I love dsm but my faith for these cars goes away when somthing like this happens , i just want help! i getting really agrevated, I know this isnt the place but i think i am going threw a stage were i just want to fall on my knees and cry!. If i try to focus i believe it could be a siezed throw out bearing. only with the clutch in will it make this noise!

Loose flywheel or pressure plate bolt, or TOB. Get an OEM TOB.
