check your wheel bearings make sure they are both tight [do not over tighten them, finger tight then about a quarter turn] Check your tension rods as others had replaced in that thread, check the strut nuts up top. check you sway bars brakets and links, check your ball joints, and check your subframe mount bolts. One of those is your likely problem. You could also check your motor mounts by power braking the car and giving it a little gas the engine should not jolt when doing this it should only lean to one side the return when leting off the throttle ,not bounce back hard.

Thanks thats what the Mechanic said, but I dont trustmost mechanics. So I decided to ask you 240 Nuts aboutthis stuff. What kind did you get? How much did it cost?
Oh by the way thanks for the help everyone.Even though I am completely car illiterate, meaningI have no idead where my struts are **turns around for kick in the *****But I am reading your guys stuff and learning.
After searching for aftermarket pillowball mounts and finding them to be pricey and that most dont work with struts, I just ordered factory mounts from EverythingNissan.com, WAY cheaper than what my local dealer wanted!! I got them at just over $100 for both shipped. The local dealer wanted $80 each!!!
