All 4 shocks and springs are on, but the whole left side of the car is lower than the right. Anyone know if it would more likely be the springs or the shocks? The car had coilovers on the car when i bought it and it was fine....?

DEFINITELY not the shocks. Shocks dont affect ride height. You probably put both rear springs on the driver side. And both fronts on your passenger side.

dude thats normal, ive had 5 different sets of springs and shocks on 4 different civics, they ALL do it, its cause your heavy *** sits on the driver side those springs sag sooner. some springs do it more than others though. also you got the engine ont he driver side. you have the neuspeed "SPORT" springs dont you?
