clunk sound over bumps
i probably already know why but wanted a second opinion anyways.
everytime i go over a bump or over a hole or something i would hear a loud clunk coming from my right rear side....either it's the wheels or the exhaust
my car's dropped about 2"
maybe i should raise the back a lil higher.
also when i brake i hear squeaky sounds, and grinding sounds....
probably the pads and rotors
what ya guys think?

Oh, boy, each could be so many things. The clunk could be an incorrectly installed spring or shock, something loose in the trunk, bumpstops...
As for the brakes, probably just old rotors and pads... does the pedal or steering wheel shake when you brake?

doesn't steer, firm control =] just stupid noises
trunk = empty, besides a bottle of 10lb n2o
shocks = kyb agx adjustable , just installed
underneath = custom piping ...thats about 2-3 inches from hitting the ground

It's likely that the coilover is somewhat dislodging from the upper spring housing (or whatever it's called) when you hit a bump... coilovers really don't fit correctly on Accords, and will do this in the rear when you hit a bump... the sound occurs when it slides back into place. My car does the exact same thing, and it's annoying, but really nothing more than that...

try placing a zip tie around the spring and the top seat, if it seems to be that the coil is separating from the seat.

is an unseating spring more common in shorter springs or longer springs? Also, how about the perch height? If I move the spring onto a higher perch (so the springs are compressed more initally), would that help solve the problem?
