The strange knock

Greetings from Greece.
I have a fc turbo II cabrio.When I have the 3rd gear in and floor the gas pedal i hear SOMETIMES a strange knock that comes from inside the hood (from the left-front part of the hood).Does anyone know what this might be?
I thank you in advance.

Well hello from Japan

Do you have any modifications? Are you using the correct gas and are the spark plugs clean? It sounds like your engine is detonating and you do not want to keep doing that! It can ruin an engine very quickly.

Nah,the engine is in great condition.
I think the knock comes from the clutch pedal or something that has to do with it.I recently had crashed it so i believe that this is the problem.Any other opinions?
