Just got my 05 Z dropped today using Eibach Sportlines and Tokico D-Spec... looks good, only problem is that the drop is not even from left to right - noticed it when I got home. My driver front size is perfect when I measured it as well as the driver rear - however, my passenger rear is about 3/8 inches too high and my passenger front is maybe slightly too high but just barely.

I also got SPC rear camber arms installed but I haven't done alignment yet cause the guy didn't have time to today - he didn't use the toe bolts that came with it saying that the stock ones were better and he didn't need the other ones to adjust it.

Potentially what could be the issue? alignment, springs, shocks, or camber arms? When I come back in a week for alignment I'm not leaving until its even but it's good to know what to look for as I'll be watching closely this time.

Not having many passenger can also lead to this.

I try to get passengers all the time so i can even my height on left and right. lol

Pics? Where's the car parked when you see this un-even ride height? Driveway? Angled, uneven, inclined, flat? My driveway is uneven so the ride height looks uneven as well depending where and how I park it.

Your suspension Eibach/Tokico should practically slam your Z with the tire practically under the fender-well.

I'll post pics later today.

It might also need a little time to settle in...

Let it settle, although dont hold your breath. Many cars with springs never set evenly, in most cases there are differences. My GF's Z with Tanabe springs sits 1/8" higher on one side-her passenger side is higher. No biggie, you will get used to it.

Actually, stock Zs are usually higher on the driver front than the passenger front, so when the driver hops in, it compensates for the weight & it levels out. Both rear sides are usually level.

Probably hard to tell here... I used a measuring stick to verify that it is still off, might need to settle.

that looks like my drop. hopefully it will settle...this kinda blows. a lot of hours to put springs on.

To Threadstarter,

Wait it out for a little bit. The passenger side has not experianced weight on it so that is probably why the driver's side seems lower than the other. Eventually, they will both even out so give it time. If this issue still occurs, take out the passenger side wheel and look at your spring+shock. Make sure that everything is intact and that the shock is not blown or spring out of tophat.

this is why I always tell people to get coilovers

What about some driver side pics? How about take a passenger out for a drive and go over some speed bumps and stuff. You can also park at an angle and let more of the weight towards the passenger side.

Take a nap in the passenger seat

Just did an alignment, much more even now and the drop looks way better (still slightly uneven, but not noticable)... The guy said it might be a good idea to get adjustable arms for the front since I only had rear camber arms and toe bolts. What do you guys think about these specs?
