ive been hearing a loud rattling/ clunking noise on the front passenger side and it has been getting a lot worse
at first i thought i might have blown a strut, but i dont see any oil leak and i recently tested them and they seem fine
my thoughts now is that its the stabilizer bar, but its pretty tight and doesnt seem like it could be rattling that much
i really dont kno what to do now and i dont feel safe driving while this problem persists
suggestions/ help would be appreciated
thanks

Does sound like you got a blown strut.
Check for loose nuts, and if its aftermarket, check top nut out.
I have the same clunking noise too but only when I go through unavoidable potholes and stupid bumpy roads... I'm going to check tomorrow. I'm on Teins S.Tech Springs with Tokico Blues.

Both of you should check the bolts holding your end-links, mine were loosened because I thought I'd need to take them off for installation but I never had to. Even if I were to lift my car and rock it with my hands lifting the wheel well it would make a "rattle" noise. Try to tighten them either using a wrench or an air wrench.
Awesome I'll try to see if that works thanks!

Count me in on that same sound...im on KYB adjustables and eibach springs. I may try to check the nuts tonight...
It clunks when you pull out, hit a bump, or hit a pothole. I only had these things one for about a year as well...
I took my car to the shop I ended up finding that my control arm was loose.. some how not aligned.. also check the subframe. If you want to know where the nuts are.. you can look for the TRD sway bars install DIY in the install-->suspension section.
