Need HELP! G35 & 350z suspension problem (noise)

I'm getting this odd rattling-like/knocking noise from the front right suspension area. I believe I did have this noise even before I switched to 05 350Z springs/struts. But anyway, I switched to the Z suspension and I'm getting that noise only on the front right suspension area whenever I drive over rough roads or speed bumps etc.. It's reallllllly annoying. It sounds as if I'm going to break something. I will have to add to the problem that I did have an accident with the car. **I was driving on the highway, highway speeds of course 65-75mph, and I ran over an armadillo (front right wheel) and that was right before I switched to the Z suspension. Yeah, I was still on the oem sport suspension for my G35 sedan. The car still drove normally after the hit however I did start to notice, only after a while, that the car would drift a bit to the right. The car never did that before the accident. I then switched out my suspension and the right-drifting was really noticeable. It felt like the TSB thing concerning the compression rod. I doubt it though. If you look at our lower control arms it's like a hook design and not a A design like other *** cars. If bent hard enough it would throw off the OEM alignment I believe. Anyway, after the Z susp swap I've since had that noise coming from teh front right. It's more of a knocking type noise. Like"knock, knock, knock..." My dad and I even swapped out the front right shock mount with the oem sprot sedans to no avail. He said Nissan's strut mounts tend to go out here and there. Well, that didn't fix anything at all. Upon looking under the car when on teh lfit, everything else looks in tact and nothing seems loose.
That's about it, my story.

Help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G members.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
