Whiteline bar is not even close to hitting the exhaust and the bushings are like new as well..

Exhaust is not clears everything with plenty of room to spare back there.

rear struts are AGX and not blown.
all bushings and endlinks to my rear swaybar are like new.
I was thinking maybe trying to grease the bushings with ES grease,thinking maybe that they are dry and thats the noise

Also put the right rear suspension through it's full travel to make sure it is not hitting the exhaust.

Exhaust does not move AT ALL. Its held up by Kartboy polyurethane hangers

Seriously you can walk up and kick the shit out of it and it dont move.
I was jumping up and down on the rear bumper today,cant get it to make noise.
I rode around in the back and I swear it souns like its coming from the top of the strut

I am over this...make the car sound like a real POS

A few different people ask...whats that clunking? Even when they just hear me drive away,not necessarily in the car.

I really WISH it was just the exhaust because I am gonna redo it soon nayway,but it has to be something else.

Tearoffguys NX has the same problem,and has for years...I guess it dont bother him like it does me.I am sure once I figure out what it is,he will fix his

he has Hyperco/agx and running the stock rear sway and 2.5 VRS system.
His exhaust does move alittle,but its a totally different sound from the noise I am talking about.

Thanks for all the replies..keep them coming

Do you have power windows? I have power windows and sometimes when they are rolled down all the way or in a certain position they will clank every once in a while. The rear tie rods should also be an area in which you look.

bumping this,because I put my csk/hypercos,and active tuning RSTB on the NX and the noises are still there. No blown struts and all new gaskets on the rear. Everything is tight.
Anybody??

My guess would be that the exhaust is hitting somewhere.

I'm having the same noise in the rear of my car currently. I can't figure out wtf it is. I am going to try swapping out the strut mounts back there and see if it helps.
