I have a TR-8 and it did something similar to what you are discribing. If once and awhile when driving over a bump slow does do you here a clunk, all of this could be an indication that you have a bad front ball joint. On other thing that mine did before i fixed was if you step on the brakes hard from a high speed it would pull to one side. This was due to the fact that all of a sudden the lower point on the strut was moving about a 1/2" thus changing the front end dynamics. It also can be a wrapped rotor, too.
