Front diff, front CV joint or semi siezed wheel bearing at a guess. Maybe jack the front of tha car up and check for any freeplay / noises from the front wheels one at a time. This is kinda a hard one to diagnose without seeing it. Where abouts are you located?

Hey guys

S1 series stag, when reversing with full lock the outside wheel makes a grinding noise and seems to bounce

been to a few garages noboby in vic seems to know what they are talking about, any comments would be a great help :blink:

Had the same thing in past.

Would not always happen, but when it did happen, the fear of god was put into my wallet.

Funny thing is that when I upgraded my wheels from 17" to 18", the noise stopped.

odd.

:huh: I didn't mention the front drive shaft.

the front drive shaft cant really have anything to do with it - there is an open centre diff and CV joints between there and the wheels.....

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
