Problem with installation?
Is it possible that my mechanic made some kind of mistake when installing my H&R Race springs that would result in the rear being noticeably lower than the front? It just doesn't make sense to me, I've seen pictures of other EGs with the same springs but their drop looks either even or staggered in the good way. Could it be cause I only have a ZC DOHC with no P/S, A/C, or C/C resulting in a lot less weight in the engine bay that's causing this? Someone solve my problem please! Lol.
How are you measuring to determine if it is level?
What is the claimed lowering of those springs for your car?
If you have Koni Sports, raise the rear shock circlips to lift the tail some if desired.
But, I don't think you an mis-install lowering springs in such a way as to really change the ride height. Re-using the metal dust boots with a threaded spring perch that causes interference issues definately, but not with just lowering springs.

Besides that, fenders don't keep their shape very well over time. I have 1" of front fender gap difference left to right up front, but the front side jack points only measure 1/2" difference in height. Car has never been wrecked either, the fenders just aren't perfect.
It takes lowering the front 1" more than the rear to produce even fender gaps. The front openings are larger than the rears.
