Default Is something bent possibly?

So i have an 01 em2 with d2 coilovers. theyre not great but theyre not horrible, but in the rear ive set the ride height the same but the coilovers are adjusted at different levels. in the front i was able to set the coilovers to the same on both sides and the ride height was the same when i put them on. so this makes me think something might be bent. anyone have any ideas? thanks

The left side of the car weighs more than the right (gas tank, motor and you).... so if you want the car to sit level, you are going to have to fiddle side to side with the coilovers to get it to sit straight. Sounds like a fairly normal thing to me.

I know that my car had to have four different heights set on the collars, in order for the car to sit level.
