Heres my situation... I recently bought a 93 SOHC V-Tec Civic. I love the car itself. It came with a bit of performance parts, but the person I bought it from was the typical shady untrustable car salesman. When i began to driv the car, I heard this noise coming from the rear. It sounded like a clucking noise. I had a mechanic check it out, and he replaced me bearings. Some of the noise went away. The Car DOES have Coilovers... could there be some problem with them. I asked the seller what the f*** the noise was and he said it was the coil overs. He said they needed to be raised a little because with the compression, the noise should go away. So will someone out there plz give me some advice... I really dont wanna give the car back to the previous owner. Any help in taking the noise away like how to re-adjust the adjustable coilovers would be great... thx

Yes it's more than likely the cheap coilovers. Switch to regular springs or true coilovers if you can afford them and the noise should go away if it's that.
But before you do that are the wheels balanced and suspension aligned properly?
