Default help! rubbing metal noise!

this is whut has been happening lately...

after racing at the illegals lately... i realized that my car has been makin a funny noise (in addition to the oil leak, and the detonation problems with my turbo)

it has to do with the suspension i think. cuz there is this dip and bump that i always hit at 85-90 mph at the end of out little illegal track. and i always hit it cuz im always on the damn left lane.

but anyways... when i take left and right turns... its ok. but when i reverse my car and turn at a 45 degree angle... it squeeks the whole time i reverse! this aint no normal squeek. its more like metal rubbing on metal. any ideas what this could be?

i dont think its the clutch... i got an ACT xtreme. i can reverse and drive with no noises but the normal ACT squeek. but only when i reverse and turn at an angle it will go off. any auggestions why?

I get something similar.. when i reverse at a 45 it sounds like a baby crying or a whine ( i only say this because my friends actually thought it was) but also when i am just cruising on the highway say 60 mph i makes a sound like screws being shaken around in a jar but constant.. does yours do that?> when i step on the brake even slightly it stops immediately..

if you find out please please please let me know its been buggin me for months..
