Default Suspension problems !! help!! =(

Hey have any of you guys out there with integra's ever noticed that the passenger rear end sits higher than the driver side rear end. It's onlie a lil like maybe a cm... but it's still noticable. I dunno if it's just my integra or if everyone's car is like this. Thanks for any help that you guys can give me.

mine is also the same way!! it pisses me off!! i spoke with my mechanic and he told me that because the motor and driver being on one side causes it. Coilover's would be your solution!

hmm... well it makes me feel better that it's not just me =P haha... i got coilovers rite now and the problem is that i have the perches set all the way down so in the rear the perches are sitting on the perches built onto the shocks. (hope you know what i'm talking about). So in nutshell everything is set all the way down and just one corned looks wak rite now cuz it's higher than everything else. Maybe i'll jus buy a 50 pound sak of rice and stick it on the right side of my trunk LOL... j.p =P

Maybe an upgraded Sway bar will help level it out??? Either that or 2 chicks on the passenger side

sway bar does not affect ride height. I have thought of swapping my rear shock/spring assemblies side-to-side so that maybe it will even out a bit.

I used to have that problem but i got coilovers and some suspension bars and that made a huge difference.

The sway bar doesnt affect the height at all, but I was suggesting it because the job of the sway bar is to keep the car level under more extreme situations, so it can theoretically help even it out a bit, since it is connected to the frame and the Trailing arms.
Even so, It was the most noticable suspension upgrade I made , besides tires.
