Default Braking Noise (with video)

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to figure out what's causing this "grinding" noise every time I brake. It's coming from the front-right wheel and it sounds like a metal-to-metal contact. I tried replacing the brake pads and resurfaced the rotors, and I still hear the noise. I also did an alignment and wheel balance. Does anybody know what's going on or have similar problems?

I have tried searching the forums for any relevant topics and I can't find anything close to what I'm experiencing. Here is a video that I recorded earlier:
The noise starts at about 7 seconds in.

For reference, I have a 2006 Nissan 350Z with ~88k miles.

Thanks for your help.

Sounds like a bad wheel bearing or hub assembly.
