Just had an alignment done.
Well a good friend of mine just did an alignment on my R. I have noticed that since I bought the car back in late April that while turning to the right I was getting a slight vibration and I could also hear this problem as well. The car use to have Eibach lowering spring which got swapped out for OEM springs. He asked me right from the start if the car pulled to the left a little bit and of course I said yes. He then told me to look at my Caster which is a none adjustable option for the car where he works.
My question is, has anyone else had this sort of issue and what caused it? Was it a control arm, ball joint, strut, or just something being loose to make it do this?
I apologize ahead of time if this is in a Sticky, but I have been awake since 4pm yesterday and I just got done working the 11pm-7am shift and anyone who has worked this can understand me missing the Sticky.

looks like you got a bent suspenion on your right side. pretty much just got to replace each part one by one unless you can see one bent. i would start out with the lca since its cheapest and easiest to replace
Its very hard if not impossible to find bent parts sometimes, try lca as mentioned above. My EG had caster problems ended up replacing the engine cradle after throwing every other part at it
Before you spend any money have your friend shift the subframe. Its usually a two person job because you have to loosen all the rear subframe bolts with the pry bar and while your holding it in spec tighten all the bolts up while still prying the with prybar with an impact gun. the bolts are usually quite a bit smaller in then the holes in the subframe just for that reason.
