s14 Rotational Clunking...??

Ok, so I have had some issues with a rotational clunk from the rear end of my S14.

Quick update on previous mods to solve "old" clunk (turned out to be bad subframe bushings: solved by installing alluminum collars). I have all new springs (Sportlines), Shocks (AGX's), control arms, traction rods, and aluminum subfram collars/spacers.

Ok, so now for the current problem. Since the install of the subframe collars I have noticed a clunking in the form of a rotational clunk in the rear end of the car. The thing is that the clunk is only apparent when torque is put on...i.e., really give it some gas, esp in higher gears and avg speed.

I have done alot of searching on Zilvia and a couple other sites and came up with most people swapping out their axles or differential bushings, where it connects to the subframe.

The problem is that i have cecked the differential bushings and they look fine. The CV boots around the axles have no tears so should be fine too?? So should I go ahead and swap out the axles and hope for the best?? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
