car lower on one side than other w/Neuspeed????

I been reading on these forums for a while on suggestions for what kind of springs I should buy. I finally decided on Neuspeed Sport for my 2k1 civic. It has been 5 days since install (I DIY myself, I work at an Acura Dealership) I know that the springs take a few days to fully settle, but I'm beginning to notice that my car is more lower on the driver's side that the passengers side, it's all an even drop but noticeable.
Anybody have this problem??? I assume that it's because i'm the only one in the car most of the time and more weight is applied to that side. Will it go away eventually or what??????

Yep, I just noticed recently that i have the same problem. The driver's side is about a 1/4" lower than the passenger. I couldn't believe it when I saw it. I don't know wtf happened...I have read a couple posts about others have a similar problem but not sure if they had neuspeed springs or not.

Oh, I have neuspeed sports and a ex sedan btw.

Tisk tisk, should have gotten goldline.
Maybe you could shim them somehow (sorry, no ideas on that).

I could of swore I read somewhere where in stock form the Civic leans to the left a little. This is due to it being heavier on the left side. I noticed this the first week I bought mine. Then read somewhere that this was normal. Perhaps you didnt notice it until now? Dunno..

Yep,

Stock leans left a little, but sometimes it levels out.

I have (old) GoldLine coupe springs. I think my passenger side rear is lower than my driver side rear.
