Turns out it is my brakes. Got it checked out today. The guy also tried to tell me that my rotors need to be replaced but I dunno about that. When they see a young person in the shop they always try and bs ya.

Since I need new brakes I've decided that I was going to get drilled slotted rotors from JC Whitney ($65 each :)) but I was wondering if you needed a different type of pad or even caliper for them or if you could use the stock caliper with http://www.jcwhitney.com/webapp/wcs/...&storeId=10101 these pads.\'99 SSM Camaro V6 M5<br />(mod list on cardomain site; too long to list here)<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/v6cam99\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/v6cam99</a>Comment

Don't waste your money on slotted/drilled rotors - get the Amico (sp?) rotors from Autozone and pocket the change for good ceramic brake pads.<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/kefkafloyd\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/kefkafloyd</a> <br />Red 1997 Pontiac Firebird 3.8L A4 w/ Y87Comment

So long as they fit your car, you need not purcahse "special rotors" or different calipers. Stock everything works fine.Originally posted by 99v6cam:

I highly suggest Hawk HPS pads.Justin<br /><a href=\"http://www.bass482.com/firebird/index.html\" target=\"_blank\"> 2000 Black Firebird A4 Y87<br /></a>170.2rwhp/203rwtq (SAE Corrected)Comment

oh my god, someone has the same problem I have.
Symptoms:
Makes clunking/popping noise
Only on right turns, or over bumps at low speeds, also makes the sound when comming to a stop and transfering weight to front.
From what I have been told, and sources on the f-body faq site say it is a missing rubber cusion above the spring. Very common. I already looked at my sway bars, bushings, control arms, exhaust, I looked for any lose parts. The culprit has to be the springs. [img]smile.gif[/img]
You know what can cause this much faster? Taking right turns hard and swinging out the as.s end of your car. After I did this about 10 times I developed the sound. [img]smile.gif[/img] I rarely take hard corners turning left. Im addicted to taking hard rights though
