So the other day I driving on the expressway, (seen a S2000 and a STi get pulled over for racing), and the car started making noise. When I turn the car, like around a corner, it makes a clicking noise. or more like a tumping noise. And the sterring wheel vibrates pretty bad. Its also vibrates when accelerating. Im taking the car in tomorrow to get some work done, but does anyone have any thoughts on what it might be?

Is it the same on right and left turns? Does the clutch stick to the ground?
Where's the sound coming from?
Need more info, me thinks.

Clutch is fine. I believe its on turns both ways. Sound seems to be coming from the engine compartment, hard to tell tho

Somethin kinda like what you describe happened to me on my oldsmobile cutlass supreme (no longer own). Ended up being the power steering pump. One day it just went out on me, and cost me $350 to replace. Check your power steering fluid and pump. Might be whats causin it.

when it's in the shop, have the suspension and drivetrain checked over. that's most likely where the noise is coming from.

Sounds like cv joints to me. Relatively common for front wheel drive cars. Kinda odd that it's doing it on both sides at once though, usually one goes before the other, but once one goes, the other isn't far behind.

Check your CV joint, wheel bearing being tight, sway bar Linkage, and balljoint. Also check your motor mounts, tires for a bulge & rims.
