Default Problem with KW suspension!!! Vid inside. Any KW owners please help!

OK, so I have the KW coilover suspension and when I turn the wheel it makes a slight clunking noise... this weekend I jacked up the car to drop the oil pan to tap it for my turbo return line and I noticed the passenger's side wheel felt like it was loose. As you can sortof see in the vid it moves a little bit; I've checked all my bolts and made sure they were tightened to spec, but when I try and tighten the top nut it just spins... I talked to another RSX owner and he said his actually broke! Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks in advance,

It sounds like you broke off the head of the bolt from over tourque, or when you put them in it was under tourued and rung it off over time. It this is the case you are going to have to drill it out and put in a new bolt.
