Interesting. It does look like there's not too much of a drop. Preload bushings?

I'm gonna contact the guy who installed them and explain the issue. Not sure what he did or didn't do.

Any update? It seem that I have similar issue now, it has been about two + weeks since I have the spec-r. My driver side now exactly 1/4" lower than passenger...

have you even had the car re-aligned yet ?..... Also the factory drivers side front spring on the s2000 is longer by around 1/4 of an inch. Not even Eibach makes a fl/fr side specific spring for the s2000

I haven't gotten it re-aligned but how will this lower the car? Also there are people with mixed results when installing aftermarket springs.
Not many people have this issue. I hope its because of an install error.

I had this issue when I installed my PSS9s. I had to lower the perch 6mm on the passenger side front. The rears sat even with no problem. It's all level now but you don't have the same adjustability.
