Default Clutch Disengage Spinning Grinding Whining Noise

Hahaha! Like my title?

Im hoping this is just some adjustment that needs to be made since im not actually having any problems YET.

I just noticed tonight that when I push my clutch pedal all the way to the floor and stick it in any gear I hear something spinning and whining. If I put ALOT of pressure on the pedal once its on the floor, it sounds like spinning grinding...Not good.

If I push the clutch pedal in to just before it hits the floor, it still disengages fine and doesnt make any noise.

The tranny is an S4C (USDM B16A2), And only God himself knows the mileage on the clutch.

Dont say throwout bearing and dont say I need a new clutch, And DONT say I gotta pull the tranny off to get to it all.

Very angry sad face >:-(

Don't push the pedal all the way down.
