if it makes a noise in neutral without your foot on the clutch pedal, then it is either the bearings in the box, or the actual gears are worn. If it makes a noise whilst pressing in the clutch pedal, then your thrust bearing could be the culprit.

As far as a better gripping clutch, go and get an RPM pressure plate, its all you'll need if your clutch plate and throwout bearing are still good. It would probably be the best bet to buy a clutch kit and do everything at the same time though, whilst you have the gearbox out.

If it's slipping and still heaps of wear then u could have a split gasket and got some oil on the clutch plate, u only need the tinnyest little bit to make it slip
