Default Clunk/thump sound when breaking

Hey guys!

I've had my 350z for about a year now and we bought it off of someone who didn't care for my baby too well. Every time I brake or decelerate, there's this strange clunking sound, kind of like a joint popping?
We've replaced control arm bushings already because we thought maybe that's what it would be but nope! Could it be a suspension issue?

Thanks so much for your help guys!

Definitely sounds like a blown bushing with metal on metal contact but honestly cannot be sure without jacking it up and inspecting components. Just take it to a trusted mechanic as soon as you can to get it diagnosed.
