Suspension Help Needed

I searched and couldn't find the answer so hopefully someone can help me out.

I recently installed H&R Spring and Tokico Blues on my car. When I turn the wheel to the right over one revolution of the steering wheel I get a sort of thump sound and this happens at low speeds. No other noises and I havent heard it turning left. Other suspension mods are RSB and FSTB.

Thanks

Did you make sure all bolts were tightened to the correct torque specs or at least tightened till you couldn't tighten them anymore?

When you put the assembly back togeether, did you put it back the way it was before ? The strut mount is slightly slanted and it happened to me once that I rotated the assembly 180 degrees when I put it back together such that the upper mount would rub against the lower mount when the steering wheel is turned. Looking at the diagram, #15 rubs against #11 when they are not properly aligned.

That seems like it is probably what it is.

Thanks!!
