more details.. does it happen when the tranny is spinning? does it happen when you first depress the pedal, in the middle, or when the clutch is fully disengaged? it could be a completely normal noise

it's the sound of your clutch fork working.
if it's excessive, your throw out bearing may need to be replaced.

I used to have a CRX, the transmission on the CRX was mated to the engine in front of the passenger compartment. The shifter was connected via the shift rod under the car. The S2000's shifter goes straight into the transmission which is directly beneath it. Is it possible you are just hearing the gear engage inside the transmission?

EDIT: that is to say, in a fwd car the click from engaging a gear would come from the engine compartment not the transmission tunnel right next to you.

EDIT: now I feel like fool I see you are talking about the clutch. sorry.
