My car appears to lean towards the passenger side. It has always done so since purchase and I've recently upgraded to an H&R kit but the stance remains. I'm not great mecanically but wondered if anyone could shed anylight onto why this may occur? I'm thinking bushes or suspension mount failings?

Scott, i would check the springs and shocks as a starter for 10, if the springs are snapped or you see any moisture on the shocks odds are you have found your culprit.
if in any doubt get it checked out on safety grounds if your concerned.

A failed rear beam bush at one end will make that corner sit slighly lower than the other

Thanks chaps, springs/dampers appear fine . Looks like rear beam bushes could be cause. Will look into costs of upgrading to poly as Car is predominantly for track use. Thanks s
