Default Clonk, knock, clonk

I'm pleased with the set-up. In fact it's amazing.

Cusco Zero 2-R Coilovers with pillowball topmounts.
Cusco front lower 4-point brace
Cusco front and rear upper braces.

However - the knocking and clunking, synonomous with this set-up (i've been told) is doing my head in. Any advice please, please, please! Will uprating the bushes help (they're probably passed their best anyway). What else can be done?

Can't answer your question, although my mate has Cusco Coilover on his Evo VI and these make knocking noises, especially while turning at low speed.

Where did you get the lower 4-point brace? Does it interfere with the plastic engine bay splash guard?

The low speed knocking is so embarassing. You turn up at the Pub / Golf club and everyone looks at your car and thinks that it's fubar. Handles brilliantly though . The 4pt was already fitted to the car when I bought it. I'm now wondering if the splash guard is there . I'll check a bit later and come back to you.
