Default Sportlines on 98-01 integra?

I have had this setup for awhile now...and the front is higher then the back it is so annoying. I have talked to other people and its seems to be more common on the 98-01 integras. i was thinking about gettin the koni yellows because of there height adjustment. Has anyone had the same problem and if so did the konis fix it?

First off, my car is not a '98+. I installed my setup knowing my springs were going to be uneven. So I moved the rears to the highest perch and everything is okay. Now it looks as if the rears are a little bit higher than the fronts at times...but it is better than the other way around. I think everything would be okay if you were to get the Neuspeed Konis. They have 5 perches in the rear and I predict they will allow an even better balance between front and rear ride height. Here's how mine sits right now:

My car sat higher in back before I installed suspension, and after installing it was still higher in back than in front. So the next weekend I pulled the rear suspension and put the perches on the lowest setting. Now it sits even all around and looks great.

I saw a guy at the autocross on Sunday who had Sportlines on his 94 GSR. You could plainly see that the front sat higher than the rear. I talked with him, and he seemed to be annoyed by this also.

front sat higher than the front.
^-- he means back sat higher than the front.

Sorry. I was just the first to notice.

Don't worry, I used to have that problem but once the springs truly settle, the problem is gone.

Here's a pic of my drop...Eibach Sportlines:

Mine is lower in the back, or so it seems. I don't think the wheel wells are the same depth. I think the fronts are deeper. BTW, sportlines and AGX.

The Koni's help drop it more if you want. I lowered my front to the lower perch and left the back on the stock middle perch. when riding down the road it sits even. you are going to need new shocks one day... might as well get them now.







EDIT: That was when I had my two 15's in the trunk, so it sits a little higher in the back when parked now... but it sits PERFECT when driving. I was going to lower it down in the back so it would look more even when parked, but then the *** end would sag while I was driving or had anyone or anything in the car.
