Pulling left...
Hi guys and gals
I've had the Powerstation T25 kit on my 03 STi for some time now. Recently it's pulling left slightly and it's not the road surface as it does it on many different roads. Also the car appears lower on the left than the right and i'm thinking this is causing it to pull left! What could cause it to pull left and can the suspension simply 'drop' like that?
Thanks,
Gav..

imho
The only things to happen to let the front drop is a spring yeilding or the adjustable spring adjusting collar is loose.
I doubt the first and suspect the last.
Easy to check:
Jack it up and remove front wheel. The droop in the suspension will allow you to rotate the black adjusting ring by hand if it is loose.
If it is loose, then tighten the allen head screw and take it back to Power Station and let Curtis re set it.
In 3 years with AST's I've never had such a failure.
Either way, get it checked out asap

Apart from the ride height issue, the geometry 'should' be checked every 12 months of so as it does go out over time (speed bumps/pot holes etc).
However, there does seem to be something else amiss.
