Okay since I got my 92 se back Ive been hearing this noise which I thought was the front tires rubbing against the wheel well, when I turn, its kind of a scraping noise. Tonight I figured out exactly where its coming from. Its right around the rear drivers side wheel. when I turn sharply or even alittle harshly and the weight shifts to that side I here a scraping noise, I looked at it with the wheel on and couldnt see anything obvious( Im no mechanic but there were no parts swingin or hanging lol), Im gonna take it to a mechanic tommorow, but I wanted to know if anyone knew what this is and how severe it is, I dont want to damage the car more by driving it.
Im pretty sure its only when I turn right.
Also the car isnt sitting any lower on that side (that I can see) and Ive got a stock suspension.

Thanks

ps. Chris- I got that price but my email wasnt working and your pm inbox was full. $120

 

Did you stick your hand up in there between the shock and the wheel to make sure there is enough space? I know that's simple, but maybe it's your wheel rubbing in the back against the shocks.????
I hate to hear that things givin you trouble in the first week. Good luck.

P.S. Any word from that chick yet? Did she get the check?

Peace.

 

Check the rear sway to make sure there are no broken brackets. I know that tends to happen on the Addco bar (if you have that), but I guess it could on the stock bar as well.

Check it out.

 

likes theres enough room between and I dont have and adco bar. Nismo shes still waiting for the check to clear then shell send.

 

I wasnt able to get to mechanic today and its ****ing me off because I wont be able to go til at least friday because I have to go to a funeral on monday and tues-thursday school and that means friday. no one has any ideas?

 

It's def. a rubbing sound? Like metal against metal? Did you check out the frame and make sure it was straight at the body shop? I know that thing was wrecked before...
Post it in the General forum. Someone's got to have some better ideas! Sorry to hear about the SE and about your week to come. Good luck

 

it was hit in the front, but I think its the rear strut on that side.
its only when weight shifts or is transfered to that side. anyone else think so?
