Annoying belt sounding squeak help! Plus other probs

1) I searched, but I found that I could be a number of things. I have a 93 hatch with 109k on it. It only happens at around 5k and above, and it gets real annoying, because it sounds like something is gonna break and causes me to shift early. Here is what I think it could be:

belt(I only replaced 1 when I changed the waterpump out, the other looked ok)
ac compressor (I have AC and it's cold)
alternator
belt tension(I tightened it up good both belts are tight)

Can you guys help me on this? Some say I need to get a new AC compressor because it's supposadly going. But I think it could be something else, I've tried multiple times to fix it and I can't.

2) I have a set of tein HE's for my car, I have the front set at like 8 or 9 and the rear set at like 9 or 10. I set the ride height down some, to where it's nicely lowered, but not too much so. I only adjusted the coil perch and not the actual bottom perch(I can see 4 threads on the bottom). This really decreased my shock travel, and I heard clunking when I friend drove it and hit a chug hole with the front tire. What should I adjust it to, for lowered yet good performance, since I was sick and tired of seeing my jacked up 240's front at normal height. What can the tein camber plates be adjusted to (maximum camber) Because I was told that it could only be adjusted to a max of 1.5*... when I see all these people go to like 3 and 3.5*. You can get special control arms, that will allow yet more camber adjustability, but I was just curious.

3) I have had a few drift boo boos, and sometimes(I haven't noticed it in a while) When I turn all the way right, mid ways through turning, I hear a clunk, I think it's just the spring on the perch, but I don't know.

4) I have a stock replacement clutch, and the clutch travel is almost 2x what it should be and releases at the very top. It was a really crappy clutch about $90 or so, and kinda grabs weak, not to mention I beat the shit out of it when drifting and shifting hard. What clutch would you guys recomment for a KA that drifts, autox's and uses a clutch a lot?

Thanks so much, please don't flame me too bad... heh
