My rear's are the same. The passenger side is 1/4" taller than the driver side. Also on full tank of gas. I thought I was going crazy at first as well, but it's an easy fix as I'll be doing the springmount mod sometime soon. Just chop an extra 1/4".

Off topic, but my Z S-Tech does not seem to drop that low compared to OP's pic. If anything my driver side (the one that is lower) looks like his passenger side....hmmm...

Obviously I don't because I've never had a problem with this with any suspension on any car.

Stock what? I'm on 350z Tein S-Techs without the springmount mod. Stock OE 19's with OE size tires.

Differences in camber can also affect ride height.

its normal for our cars to be like that, ive talked to many G/Z specialists and they say the height difference is common. Only think i can recommend is cut the spring mount a little more on the higher side to bring the rear fender gap to the same height.

It's 2016 now so has anyone succeeded in leveling the car left to right?
My driver side rear is at least 1/2 inch lower than the passenger side rear so it rubs a fair bit.

I tried to level it out by adding 1/2 inch cut out spring mount onto the existing spring mount - on the driver side rear - but the car just sits exactly the same!
