Default Weird clicking noise...

I have a 2000 Honda Civic Si. I've noticed for the past few weeks that there is a weird clicking noise coming out from the left front side. The thing is it makes the noise when I hit a small bump or something of that nature. Going up a curb also causes the noise. It seems that passengers can't here from their side. I've already tried the test where I am turning and then accelerate more, and it doesn't make the click when I do that. The other thing was that I managed to bounce my car up from the fender on the right side and it makes the clicking noise. If I bounce it up and down from the left fender it won't make the noise. Also I've checked my CV boots and they look to be in good condition, not torn or any fluid coming out. I'm still thinking it could be the axles. I also recently installed Skunk2 adjustable springs on my KYB AGX shocks to replace my Neuspeed sport springs. Can anyone help me out?? Thanks!

That would be my guess, i would check for blown axles first and go from there.

Well it turns out my wheel wasn't on properly. I took it off to inspect my CV boots, etc. and everything looked perfect. I was completely puzzled and I didn't really know what to do. I put everything back together and took for a spin and viola! No more clicking.
