VirtualReality Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 The suspension I have is JDM SpecB rev.A with STi pink springs for auto wagon. I just noticed my passenger side sits higher than driver side. Here are the numbers measured from ground to fender: Driver front 25 1/2" Passenger front 26 1/8" rear 26 rear 26 1/4" I have two finger gap from tire to fender on passenger side. Driver rear is also two finger gap but tight. Driver front is only 1.5 finger gap. I remember seeing someone post about it before but can't find it. I also searched on google without any luck. Most of the post I saw from google were ignore it, no fix, or go coilover. Do I need an alignment or new/rebuild Bilstein? I bought the Bilstein used around 30k miles. I've driven less than 5k miles on it. The STi pinks are bought new. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenNorthLGT Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 ignore it, no fix, or go coilover. That does seem to be the general concensus. Some attribute it to the drivers side always having extra weight with the driver, the passenger side, not as often. Ive read quite a few threads on it and AFAIK there's no real good solution...

Captain Ned Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Happens with every stock suspension as well. Only way to fix it is to rejigger the car for a centered driver's position (ala McLaren F1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyWifezLEGi Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Did you measure it before you put the bilsteins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VirtualReality Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 Thanks for the replies, I guess I'll have to live with it. Group buy McLaren F1 kit for Legacy? I didn't measure it before put on the Bilstein. It was measured after a member requested, and realized the height was different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecBGuy Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 my car wasnt even when i got my car but the dealer checked all alignment and said everything was ok. i got ion springs which 2 springs were a tad shorter then the other but the ride is even.
