All i can suggest is to remove the door trims and have a look and see what it looks like. i.e. check if there is anything missing like a screw or whatever that may be making it sound different.
otherwise i would recommend something like Dynamat (or similar stuff you have in the US) which is basically sound deadener used for big stereos. It is a tar like stuff that sticks to the doors and makes them heavier and more insulated. just stick some to the suspect door and it should make it sound much more solid when closing. i know of a few people who did it to their S13s as the doors on those are very tinny sounding
