Ride Height Adjustment Problem

I recently put a set of single adjustable yellow Koni's and blue PFS springs on my 94 PEP Rx-7. I set the Koni's up so that the springs were on the highest height adjustment setting.

What I don't get is that my car is lower on the drivers side than it is on the passenger side. I even measured this and confirmed this problem. I know for a fact that I set all 4 shocks/springs on the same setting. Any ideas as to what is going on? Has anyone else had this problem. I have one friend that had the same problem and he said that he just set the passenger side on a lower height setting to level out the car. Anybody else have an input? Thanks.

Double check the springs to make sure they're seated properly.

i asked this question a while ago...i guess the reason is that these cars are made that way for right hand drive in Japan. Once the driver gets in, the car is leveled. That doesn't really help us out here because it only makes the driver side sit even lower...

Thanks for the replies guys. I was starting to wonder if maybe I had screwed something up or maybe I missed something when putting my suspension back together. I'm glad that I'm not the only one with this problem.
