Default Clunking noice-> powersteering?

Just need some urgent help...

Just put my head back on my b16a2 after some head work and took it for a drive.

The car was going fine untill it started making a low sounding clunking noice, sounds like its coming from around the axles.

So i need to know what the likely problem is.
The car is lacking powersteering fluid majorly so is this the likely culprit?
or does it sound more like a totally rooted CV?

Any help hugely appreciated

I had this same problem a year ago. It should be your CV Joints. Check and see if the rubber seals are cracked. If they haven't already split, the axels can still be saved, but If they were already split (like mine were) you must get new ones. It wasn't pretty for me, I had axel grease splattered everywhere.
