Icon3 wierd suspension???

hey guys i just bought a 99 Si....and wen i was looking at it i though it was just a stock suspension on it... well wen i get home and take a look it has skunk2 springs and sport series struts.. so im trying to figure out why the rar end sits so damn high...not to mention the coils are compressed all the way... i put it next to my bothers 2000 Si wit a complete stock suspensionand its just as high as his...

Any sugestions.. this is really buggin me
