My '98 Boxster made the same noise in the right rear tire, and the cause for it was due to that strut having leaked out its oil, and eventually wore out.

Once I replaced the rear struts, the car no longer made that vibration thunking sound on hard right turns. Just like your car, it was silent on left turns.

I would take a look at the strut, and see if their is oil all over the body of the strut.
If there is, its time for new ones.

BC.
