I'm about 65% it's your axle nut coming a bit lose. Torque it down again if the problem goes away your set. If it comes back replace with a new nut.

If you cv joint was jacked. You'll know by the grease splattered on your wheel wells.

But...... You won't know till you lift your car up and look. Come on bro, do you even lift(your car)?
I forgot to mention it's my Corolla, not the brz lol.

damnit. yeah I had the same sound from my Mazda 626. I ignored it for a day then one day the axle broke during rush hour traffic lol.

how much do you think it would cost to fix a cv joint? I'm guessing parts and labour would be about $500?
