Default 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.
