Default 92 Si, had to offset coilovers to make height even??!

Like the title says, when i bought the car it had koni yellows and GC coilovers already installed but he height in the rear was higher on the passenger side. So i start to adjust the bottom perch to get the height even in the back, but i had to drop the perch almost all the way down to the bottom of the threads to even out the height. The drivers side rear perch is about halfway down. What could be wrong here?

Without corner weighting your car, each corner is going to weigh more or less than every other one, especially after factoring in the fact that your chunk of matter is sitting in the driver's seat.

this height difference is also without me in the car. It was first noticeable by a three finger gap on the passenger side and then no gap on the driver side (rear). I dont know maybe its the way its supposed to be, it just seemed weird that i had to put the passenger perch all the way to the very bottom and the drivers side is set in the middle to get them to even out, also with absolutley nothing in the rear. thanks for the replies!
