I finally did the front yesterday with 350z springs on my 03 g sedan. As soon as I started driving i started to get a nice clunk on every bump I hit on the driver side. I went back checked over everything and made sure it was all tight.... nothing rubbing. No real sign for this sound. Would anyone have any input on something it could be?

is it from the front or back? if its front then one of the bolts inside the engine bay is loose, because i had the same problem. u need to get an impact wrench to make sure u tighten it properly

Rather than an impact, you should get a torque wrench and torque to spec. Don't want to wreck anything.

yes I was going to say a impact is a little much for those little suckers. But yeah I will tighten it down and see what happens.Originally Posted by SwivelHips

yeah made sure they were tight with a torque wrench and still got the sounds.
