Steering grind

So Ive done a little bit of research on this already, but I am still stuck. I plan on taking it to the dealer but id like to be more aware of the issue before hand. Whenever I turn from a stop I get a bad grinding noise from the front wheels ( cant determine which one), it doesn't happen at speed or even all the time for that matter. Any clues or ideas you guys have? Power steering? Sway bar bushings? Ball Joints?

UPDATE: Dealer looked it over didn't see anything wrong with the important parts, after giving it some hell on the way back to work it sounds more like my after market over rattling vibrating on something.

Don't all of you guys have an after market? It makes the FR-S so much faster and more responsive. You just have to make sure you buy the correct after market and be especially careful to avoid before markets...those will make your car slower.

Do any of the after markets void warranty?

Should have done your premarkets research on the aftermarkets. Now you might have broken your afterburner and preignition sensor. I’d check your intake welds just to be sure.

What ever you do, ignore the foreign market and don't buy your aftermarket stuff from the farmer market since the parts will rattle

I usually get my stuff from the black market. Only bad thing is they don't accept bits of string. Says so right here...
