Default clicking noise? Delsol?

Alright, so for a while this gradual clicking noise on my car has been getting louder and louder. Driving around windows down i determined that it was coming from my rear right wheel. (93 Delsol si FYI).

SO i took the wheel off one nite and spun the rotor by hand and got a slow, yet pattern clicking noise from the break pads. I figured, if the click was slow by my hand, when driving it'd probably be alot faster thus my clicking noise. Solution? Break Lube--which i did. Yet i'm still getting a pretty loud rattle.

I'm pretty sure it's NOT from the trunk, because the rattle goes away while applying the breaks, and the sound is primarily from the rear right wheel. I'm pretty stumped. Any ideas?

someone might have over torqued that wheel which in return warped that rotor. Switch the rotor with the other side and see what happens. If you have drum in the back the hit yourself and then go do a swap.

mmmm, i've got all four discs, and on top of that i've (done myself) upgraded to brembo drilled/slotted. I don't think it's that.

I was thinking quite possibly wheel bearing? something? anyone else?
