Any noises coming from the rear? Sounds to me like your RTA bushing is shot, but I could be wrong (that was my problem with noises in the rear/sagging) .

How old are the springs? sometimes they just need to settle for a while. You prolly just upset the way they settled when you undid them for the rear disc swap.

springs have been on the car for a good 2 or 3 years, and the bushings is a good thought, cause i can hear more clunks from that side, but i usually never pay attention to noises the car makes cause it makes so many

I'd start with this. Same thing was happening to me on my old DX. Never followed through with what it was (b/c I bought an Si), but I was 90% certain it was a bushing.
