So the first I kinda noticed b 4 but didn't really care about it, it always feels like heat is on in the car, only when the engine gets nice n hot though, and second one
When I was backing up to park a couple times now I hear a kind of clunk when I hit the brakes.... Any ideas?

Tighten the calipers, and buy a new car.

 Andrei you never burn bridges, and you build as many as you can in your life, because one day you'll want to get somewhere and you'll have a bridge to cross to get there |

sounds like a reason to upgrade to me... are there any bolt on upgraded brake calipers? or anything that would take a reasonable amount of work (as opposed to swapping out the sub frame) to get say, 2nd gen brakes on it?

Yeah pretty sure its the pads clincking around. Mine do it as well.
Is the temp slider on hot or cold?

Temp slider can be on hot or cold, and it cools down if I turn the vents on full blast cold (not ac) but for the first couple mins its like the heat is on full tilt

My Toyota does that heat thing, so I know how annoying it is in the summer.
And for your caliper noise, my Lumina has been doing that for over a year. I've replaced the pads, replaced the rotors, removed the calipers and cehcekd every nut, blot, clip, fastener and it still makes the goddamn noise.

i know one of my cooling fans isnt working, so i swapped it with the one that comes on with the AC (so if i were to turn on the AC the secondary fan wouldnt function) so i just dont use it. lol could this be why my car is getting hot inside?

I have gotten my cars brakes to stop squealing and clunking by using moly grease on the back of the pads, on all the contact points.
