click click click click click click AAAAHHH!!!
alright guys, my car is making this clicking sound...all the damn time! i was hoping it was a rock or something in my treading...but i was wrong. it isnt while im turning...well, it is, but its while im driving strait too...it gets faster as i go faster, and i cant really hear it until im going about 20-25mph.
cv joint? wheel bearing? whatta ya think? and how much would something like that cost me?

Not very. My record time, for the passenger side axle on a crx, was 13 minutes and 40 seconds from start to finish (including taking the tire off and putting it back on, etc.)
A more typical time is about 1.5 hours per side, up to 3 hours if you encounter very sticky bolts or break a tool.

you could have the driveshaft falling out, check the bolts and stuff underneath on the A-arms, and the tie rods.

Let's not bring it to conclusion on the drive shaft right away. It could be something simple before you spend a large amount of money.
threethirteen--Did you change anything on your wheels recently? Break pads? Rims? perhaps worn wheel bearing? It could just be a simple bump or dent on the back of the rim that does not clear the clearance on your suspension. Put the car on the lift and turn the wheel that is making the clicking noise to see where is the noise coming from, that should solve a lot of mystery.

cv joints, this happened on my friends integra. whenever he was driving it would make this clicking noise, the faster you go the faster the noise. then we took it in to our auto shop and checked it out and found that it was the cv joint. this is not the only thing that makes the noise but hope that helps.
