ok, as alot of you kno i have just bought my gtp, i got a great deal on it, but it came with the car having some issues, all of which i have fixed except one. when im going very slow(1-20)mph and turning my passenger side front makes a fairly loud clunk. itsounds EXACLTY like a sway bar snapped, which has also happend to me on my other GP. things i have ruled out are the following:
-sway bar
-sway bar bushings
-half shaft
-ball joint
-strut
-rack&pinion
-tie rod
so is their anything else that could do this? also i had my dad help me out by listening outside the car while it made the noise and he said it sounded like the noise was coming from the rim. which is odd. thanks

Possibility of hub/bearing, control arm bushings or maybe upper strut mount/load bearing.
Also, make sure the wheels are properly torqued to 100 ft-lbs.
Didn't you have the engine replaced? You should check to make sure the control arm bolts are properly torqued and the subframe bolts.

In addition to bnaylor's list since the noise seems to come from the wheel:
caliper bracket to spindle bolts
caliper to caliper slide bolts
caliper slides
