    Whenever I go on a hard run through twisties a crunchy/clicky noise will start to occur at what sounds like the front shocks (sometimes one side, other times both). However, a day or two after a long hard run it generally settles and the noise disappears. When daily driving and on the odd occasion, cornering hard, it does not do it. The spring is not loose and all bolts appear to be in check and were tightened to spec when installed. I am running Powertrix UL which have probably less than 20 000km on them. They are installed with spring seats and I am running them at max height resulting in the car being just over the 100mm legal limit. I am assuming it is the coilovers that are the issue...

    I am not sure what exactly is causing this issue, whether I should be concerned and how I go about fixing it.

    This is a video of what I am referring to although it sounds like more of a clang in the video then when you are driving.
