I have had my 2006 Nismo for about a week now. Yesterday i started to notice a lot of noise from the front end. Starts out clicking at low speeds, then turns into a louder noise @ high speed. Maybe a wheel bearing or cv axel? any suggestions would be apprecieated.

Check the u-joints on the driveshaft, axle boots for rips and grease leakage, wheel bearings for loosenes(seen them noisy and not loose!!!)< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">

thanks for the reply. to provide more information on the problem, the best way that i can describe the sound is that it sounds like a baseball card in a bicycle spoke when at low speeds. the noise stops when 4wd is engaged.
