the noise you hear from the front suspension could be a number of things. I suggest you get the wheel off and inspect the suspension, or take it to a garage to have them look at it. common problems could be upper wishbone wear. this is pretty common, they can be a bit of a pain to replace. it could also be the lower ball joint or perhaps a worn trackrod end.
The issue you have under throttle could also be a wide range of problems. The car has been chipped, it may be something as simple as the wrong grade of fuel. Try running some premium in it and see iif this makes a difference. You should also check for air leaks in the vaccume systems. I would also try some injector cleaner fuel addetive. It could be some contamination in an injector or a fuel line.
The noise you hear from around the timing belt is what would worry me the most. You really dont want a belt to go in a 20v. Have thet checked out asap. I recomend not driving it until a belt or belt tensioner problem is ruled out!
