Default Knocking rear

Hi all. OK car is a 2002 Bugeye WRX with Eibach ARB and Powerflex drop links.

The car developed a knock (not a heavy clunk, more like light weight parts knocking) at the rear left but only after spirited driving (cornering and braking). I then changed the rear shocks (BC Coilovers all round) however the noise is still there, it appears to be worse under load/acceleration and only happens when the car has/is being pushed.

Any ideas?

My handbrake is a bit loose and it got stuck slightly on a week ago so I'm going to strip that down to see if that cures it. I've checked everything else suspension wise
