hrmmm......well so far we can establish
-It only ticks when engaged in a gear
- The ticking is present in multiple gears
- Each gear you go up, the sound gets successively louder.
What about shifting gears? is it smooth? notchy? impossible?
Engaging gears - from neutral to first can you pick up and go as normal?
What about if you have the car in neutral and rev it? can you hear any noise?
I think with this one its probably not going to be a 'quick fix', and unless your going to get under the car, remove the gearbox and check some stuff your going to have to take it to a mechanic anyway. sounds like an odd problem.
Could be a damaged driveshaft perhaps?
good luck with it man, probably not a good idea to keep driving it until you get it fixed though.

the louder sound comes in 2nd gear...
other gears has the same volume as 1st gear
i only did testing up to 30 km/h
when im in neutral and rev and stepping on the clutch, no sound
when im in neutral and reving and not stepping on the clutch, there is sound

* PROBABLY, because there is really no way to be certain without having the car here to check out myself.
My *guess* is that something related to second gear was damaged during the shift, but I won't even try to guess exactly what that might be.

Either way it isn't a good sound and the trans is coming out of the car, so you might as well get it in to a good shop and let them sort it out for you.
Good luck!

there is nothing you can do.. but open it up and have it for them to look...
I know your car not under warranty...
bring it to PDM racing in Burnaby or AJR in Richmond..
sad to hear this..

Unless the Mysterious S2000 Repair Angel fixed this overnight I think you have to do what others allready suggested.
Remove the transmission.
Then you can have a look at the clutch.
If that's not it (and it isn't IMO).. open up the transmission.
I would not drive the car anymore.
Succes!
