Since its in the rears and you said it happens during acceleration, I'd assume its creaking during "loading". Could it be the spring perch? maybe applying some grease/lubricant on it? I've had a similar problem in the past with my wrx. The rubber the spring sits on got dry and was creeking every time it rubbed on the new king springs I installed. Not too familiar with the suspension design, but I would guess they might be similar.
