    I have a 98 GTP coupe. I just bought this car about a month ago and I keep hearing a pop or clunk sound coming from the front end whenever I get in it after it has been parked(even for a couple of mins) and I back up and turn the wheel it will make the sound just backing out of the stall or whatever. It sounds like it could be coming from either side and also makes this noise(although not as noticeable) when taking a corner pretty fast and hard. I have replaced the sway bar already(made noise before and after this) and also the tie rod ends are new. Any ideas as to what this can be or what questions I can answer to better diagnose this problem? I do not hear any other suspension noises or notice any other problems while normal driving/stopping/accelerating........any ideas?

    Suspension noises always are hard to find.

    Check your cradle bolts and make sure they are tight.
    Could be your strut mounts
    Could be word LCA bushings
