Sound from back right suspension

Well in the good ole 300ZXT I have been hearing this noise since I have had it but it hasn't caused any problems YET!

It's like a rattling sound. If you get a plastic bottle cap and put it in a bucket and shake it around that is roughly what it sounds like

Any ideas?

It could be a heat shield, your exhaust, suspension, or loose crap in the back. There are some other possibilities it just matters.
