I was getting a really bad vibration almost like if the lugs nuts weren't tighten. I replaced the drivers side axle since it was bad. now I just get the same vibration(alot less though) when turning right. Could it be the other axle. Both axles were a few months old. its only when the clutch is engaged.

 

237 views and no help does anyone have any other ideas besides the axle. I'm changing the axle right now.

 

Yo man check your Bearings......

 

is your hub tight enough?

 

bearings and hubs are fine. I think its the axle but I wanna hear what else people think it might be.

 

update: I switched the axle and its still doing. its weird cause its only doing it when I turn right. Can someone help me please

 

this might sound dumb but maybe tire rub?

wouldn't the bearings cause it to vibrate while going straight too? It only vibrates when I turn.

Sounds like it could be a tranny problem.

bump for Ivan......help a brotha out guys because I dont know the answer either.

 

I have the same problem with my 2000 si. I'm still trying to figure it out.

 

here are my suggestions/questions...

are you on the brakes when you make these right turns? (could be you warped your rotors...)

Have you had your alignment checked?

Also if you are dropped really low you could have flat spotted PART of your tire that only hits the road when it's in a turn...

other than that probobly bent suspension piece... but that's not likely to happen from hard braking... unless you ended up hitting something.

I haven't had my alignment checked yet but would it do it also when going straight? I've seen lower cars then mine. I didn't find any flat spots on my tires but I'll rotate them and see what happens. I haven't hit anything so I doubt anythings bent. Man I'm about to cry here, I can't figure it out.

 

bump. I'm starting to hate this car.

 

It could still be the differential in the tranny.

should I take it to an alignment shop?

 

I don't know the specifics of what happens when you have stock dif. problems but I know if it's locking fully or binding then it will ONLY make the noise around corners... but it would do it for left or right and you'd hear chirping out of your tires... (as it's forcing one to turn more times than it needs to on the inside of the corner).

Try jacking the front off the ground and cocking the wheel all the way right and spining just the wheel (with tranny in neutral)... if you can't hear the noise then try doing it with the engine running and it driving the wheels (be carefull wheels spinning freely in the air under power of the engine can rip up to redline FAST). If you don't hear it then it's probobly something in the suspension...

Wish I could be more help.

 

check your intermediate shaft?

 

check your ball joints. my 87 beater had a mishaps yesterday which almost caused me to wreck it. the boot around the ball was bad and the ball popped out. I noticed something felt weird when I would turn LEFT. Something didn't feel right.

Now my 15" gs-r wheel is machined on the inner lip thanks to the lower front A-arm laying its weight on it.

 

okay I was checking things around and it seems my alignment is outta wack. I don't know what its called but my right tire is messed up. the front of the tire is facing outward a little bit kinda like this / now my question is this. If my cars alignment is messed up why does it vibrate only with the clutch engaged?

 

okay here are some pics of my messed up alignment.
heres the left side
heres the right side Let me know if you guys think thats my problem. BTW this is with my steering pointing straight and you can see that the right side is the worst. The thing I still don't understand is why they're like this. I mean I didn't brake that hard. the brakes didn't even lock up.
