I have a D2A Jpn wii chipset apparently. Then the wii clip site says to "Note: when you use V14 clip in DMS/D2A/D2B chipset, please remember CUT the "D","E","F","G" 4 lines, because these old chipset just need link 5 points total!"
does it mean to cut THESE? *the ones circled in yellow*
if i have to cut those, what do I use to cut them?
Im sorry for shouting "Help ASAP!!!" and such but I am going out of town soon and wanted to have this working.

Yes D,E,F and G should not be soldered if you have a D2A.
I would think using a solder iron and a desoldering braid would be the best action. Then place a piece of tape under the Wiiclip and on top of the Modchip to make sure there is no connection made.

How would tape stop the connection? And Is there any household thing i can use to cut the points? Also were the 4 circled points in the picture indeed the points that need to be cut?

The 4 circled points at the ones.
I suggest that you don't try to cut them.
The tape is to insulate the underside of the board.
You still need to desolder the bridged points.
An exacto knife could be used, but you stand more of a chance of damaging the Wiiclip (and yourself).
A desoldering pump (or desoldering braid) and a soldering iron is the best way.

Hm so basically im screwed ATM since i cant go out to get "desoldering pump" I was confused because whenever the chip would be on loosely, it works, but when i put it on all the way then the disc drive would stop working

If you have a piece of black electrical tape between the WiiClip and Modchip then there can be no connection. I just suggested it because it would be an easy safeguard to keep the Wiiclip and Modchip from somehow making a connection and causing issues.
Or you can do as the WiiClip site says and cut the leads coming from the Black Plastic part of the WiiClip out to where it connects to the Modchip. Doing this will probably void any replacement warranty the site you bought it from might have.

If you have a soldering iron you could probably heat the solder up enough to lift the WiiClip apart from the WiiKey2 and then place electrcal tape bewteen the WIiClip and Modchip leaving the solder on the pads. That way you wouldn't need a soldering braid.
