Default suspension problem

The front right of my car is at least 1/2 inch lower than the left side... what could be causing this?

(I drive a 99 Prelude, base model. Recently had Prokit springs and Koni Sports installed, however the uneven ride height was a preexisting condition)

every honda Ive ever owned had a slight lean to the driver side ....I believe this is heavily due to the fact that the engine ,steering column,gas tank all reside on this side of the car.

I should have said passenger side... the front passenger side is lower than the left drivers side.

the fuel tank isnt on the left side... its in the middle right under the rear seats. and you forgot to say anything about the drivers weight thats constantly on that side while the suspension is working.
edit : and fubar did you install your kit?

No, I had a shop install the springs and shocks.
