if you take the shocks out and they are fully compressed and you can extend them all the way out with your hands, they are blown, well, thats what mine do

If you check all your suspension components and they are ok. I would check your manual steering rack. I know alot of the ef civic crx will have this problem. I owned 3 ef and they all have the same problem, and my 3rd EF is currently doing it. It sounds like the noise is coming from the suspension but it's not,... well in my case anyway. Hope this info helps you....lmk what you find out..
