Theirs a new strange noise coming from my girls Celica. I just put on new tenzo R springs today and KYB shocks and it looks and feels great. but now it looks like ill have a new project soon. she says its been doing it for a little while so its nothing caused by the new suspension. Its kind of a grinding noise but doest sound like metal on metal or anything. almost sounds like a bad bearing. Coming from the front end. It mostly does it when your turning right and going from a stop, it continues as you accelerate but sounds like it may quiet up a bit once you go over 45mph, but it could just be the wind noise that causes me not to hear it anymore. And when i put the clutch in the sound stops. So i was thinking maybe throw out bearing? but hears the weird part... going from a stop while making a right you hear it pretty loud, but if you go from a stop when your turning left you dont hear it at all. Any ideas guys??

well i figured it out. it is a bad wheel bearing... but on the passenger side! its so weird that the noise happens when you turn right and the weight should be off it, but w/e. i jacked it up and the passenger side front wheel had alllll types of play. so im getting a new wheel bearing tomorrow, it sucks they have to be pressed in so i cant do it myself, so im dropping it off at my buddies shop and gonna have him do it. ill let you guys know how it turns out!
