   When turning right at speed over unlevel surfaces, i can hear and feel a clunking coming from the passenger side...could it be suspension or possibly a cv joint??
   
   Im lowering 60mm will a lower strut brace cause lots of problems with clearance??
   
   Thanks

   in a word YES, 40mm max with lower strut brace.
   
   just get upper and leave it.
   
   knocking could be pas ? did you have it bent out the way when lowered ?
   
   or could be your wheels, from the sig, they aint standard.
