we both have 350z s-techs. He is expecting the full drop right after install. I am saying it takes some driving before they settle all they way down.

Tein springs are known to be uneven, front to back and side to side. Nothing you can do about it except if you cut your springmounts in the rear. That's kind of ghetto though.

But the thing is. It's really uneven. Like the left back is only 1 finger and a half maybe. And back right is about 3 fingers

Perhaps the springmounts were installed upside down or the springs are not fully seated on them? But yeah a 3 finger gap is not what you should be seeing with Tein 350z S-Techs, settled or not. Good luck.
