2"+ lowered GSR = Clunk Noise Just before stop??
I just recently installed a H&R Cup suspension kit in my 00 GSR. I had a few problems with the install, but the final product is amazing!
--BEWARE---
The lower spring pearchs are adjustable on these things and they are NOT set in the right spot ( for the advertised lowering F 2.0 R 1.75 ) from the factory. The rear pearch must be lowered to the bottom setting. You can leave the front on the top setting - this will make about a -2" f&R setup. After finding out the hard way, i re-compressed both springs again (by hand) and reinstalled the shocks.
I also installed Benen F&R lower tie bars, Skunk 2 upper ctrl Arms, and SPC Rear tie rods (camber)
I now hear a clunk sound coming from the front left wheel somewhere, but only as i come to a stop - Near stopped (like 2mph and down) and just after i take off.
ITS NOT THE CV's so what could it be?
The skunk2 camber kit is by far the sweetest setup i have worked with!
I will try to post some pics of the car soon

I had kinda the same problem after I had my Tein basics installed... there was just something loose... I had to go in there and loosen everything and then tighten it all back down. Just get it up on a lift and check everything out. best of luck
If you're not running the 2 x screws in your brake rotors, you may get a slight clunk as it moves in between the lugs. That's what my noise was caused by.

My noise was the Skunk camber kit, top for second page. Check your's in this area.
