NO clunking or kicking sound when I had my Z for 2 years just stock (no mods), then that sound started to bother me after I put just the lower spring on, every bumping road, traffic ligh, even on the smooth straigh road with
1st and 2nd gear.

I am also hearing a noise from the rear end of my car (03 Z with zero mods), and I wanted to see if this was a similar/same issue?
For me, I hear a loud popping/clunking noise when driving down a normal road, at any speed 20mph or higher. It happens rarely (once every week or so, sometimes more), and it sounds like I ran over a big rock or stick, and it hit hard against the underbody protection of the car (near rear). At first I thought I was just running over things, but then I noticed it happening on clear, well-paved roads (even went back and checked and there was nothing I could have run over). Again, it seams to be coming from the rear, but I have little real technical knowledge of what this could be.
Is this a suspension issue, or could it be something in my engine (something similar to backfiring)? Could it be something else? The dealer was unable to find anything wrong about 30k miles ago, so I am hesitent bringing it back to get it checked. Plus, I can't reproduce it, and it seems to happen about every time I forget about the issue.
