Default clicking/clinking noise from driveline

Jacked it up, inspected the axles and hubs and everything appears normal. The sound I'm hearing is a click or clink from the passenger side and it varies with load. Around 40mph it starts to be audible and when accelerating w/ low load(like down a hill) it will get more frequent and more audible as the load is light and the mph is increasing. However, under most normal-heavy loads it is not audible at all.

I have a 95 GSR basically just lowered w/ quaife and exedy stock replacement clutch. I really hope it's not the diff but I did notice that with the car jacked up when rotating the wheels the diff seemed to be making a "loose" noise or atleast something I wasn't expecting to hear.

Anyone familiar w/ this sound or with broken diffs and how they behave? tia

Have you drained the fluid into a screen for inspection of abnormal debris?
Sounds like you may have to pull apart the trans for inspection..
