Is the pedal assembly clicking or is the sound coming from under the car?

It's the left rear axle that clunks on my 370 as the wheel starts to roll mostly going backwards,, My 32 year old daily driver 280ZXT has less wierd noises that a 60,000 mile 3 year old 370.. I should swap motors and sell it LOL.

Umm yep under the car, the click comes right after the car is in motion and i depress the clutch completely. That let go of the clutch is when the click sound comes, only when the car is cold after that its gone till next cold start every start.

Nissan pretty much figured out what mine was. I was slightly overdue for an oil change and when I took it in to get that done they thought it might be because I was 2 qts low on oil. Anyway, once they changed the oil it was good. Which explained why it would make the sound when it's cold and as the oil warmed up...it would go away.

Check your oil man, it's probably valve chatter.
