Hey guys, its been weird but recently when i turn i hear a clicking noise and it only happens when going slow, and it happens when its around quarter turned as well, and in the odd occasion i can also feel a thud under the pedals but that thud is only in reverse.

I would like help locating this problem because i do not think the soarers have CV joints due to the rear wheels, and im hoping its not the steering coloum because that is going to be expensive >.< best wishes :-)

No CV joints in the front suspension. CV's at the rear for the drive shafts, but they aren't likely to make any noise while steering on a JZZ31. My JZZ31's always made the odd clunk while reversing, but you can only ever hear it, not feel it - it improved after replacing all the shocks, but it still does it on certain angles. I've spent a lot of time myself trying to track it down, and have had a mechanic friend look at it on his hoist, neither of us could track it down with a pry bar and all I can tell is that its coming from the left hand side, all the bushes and ball joints seem OK, so I've given up looking.

The clicking noise could be brake related. The thud under the pedals sounds like worn bushes to me.
