Ive been beating up my car pretty bad, drifting and all that. My car is making some clunking noise now when I downshift. When I let out the clutch its like clunk clunk and bounces kinda. It does this right after I drift also. What could this be? My cars a stock s14 with like 110k miles

I have the same problem on a '90 Coupe 5-Speed with wayyy over 161k miles (the odo quit working so I wouldnt be surprised if it has over 200k)

Argh.

Anyway, it's probably your subframe bushings or some crap.
get under your car & get dirty and find out. Maybe something's broken or loose!

You probably squeezed out the remaining fluid from your bushings with all the body roll of drifting an old car. If its the back of your car, look into the subframe aluminum spacers and see if they help...they are like $60.
