odd sounds

Well i have ground controls over the stock struts (until my Hayame come in a few weeks) and just this morning i noticed that it started to make this ungodly loud rattling from the back. It sounds like something is banding .. especially when I hi bumps and I'm pretty sure its the suspension. Do the ground controls make much sound etc and should I worry until i get the Hayame?

banging? just once after you hit a bump or is it more constant. How low are you dropped? its possible that your bottoming out

did you touch anything? When i messed with the stock camber kit, i was getting rattling noised. People were afraid my car was going to fall apart. Turns out i forgot to preload the bushings when i put it back on...

hmm i dunno ... i haven't messed with anything .... just started doing it this morning. I figure if it still does it when i get the hayame on then I'll need to worry ... I'll try not to drive too much on it.

You think i need to worry though?
