Sorry, i should have mentioned that iv checked the strut mounts and tie-rods and lower control arms and everything seems tight i even checked the bolt on the steering knuckle. the noise seems to be coming from the center of the car under the motor, could the rack be causing that noise?

you need to put the car on the loft and have someone under the car check to see and hear where the nose is coming from

Probably the rack. There is one bushing on the passenger side I believe and it could be loose or worn.
Definitely get someone to look and someone to turn the wheel. It might not happen with no load on the car so if you can find a pit that would be best.
Good luck.
