Pro-drive Springs Alignment woes
I have a set of Prodrive springs on my '02 wrx. I have had a devil of a time trying to align it. I have installed front Camber Plates and still am having trouble. The alignment specs are O.K. but the car pulls to the left. I may have a damaged suspension peice (please don't ask how it is that I am unsure about it). I have been told that lowered WRX's will naturaly pull left and right but it seems to me that at one time, after the spring install, the car did not pull. Is it natural for the Pro-Drive springs to cause this or do they usualy work without this problem? If they do cause this kind of trouble, is there a suspension poduct that can remedy it? The car has been inspected for suspension damage and none was found but I wonder If I should have it done again just in case they missed something.
Any insight would be helpful thanks.

steering rack bushings?
did you have more than one alignment shop check it out? i didn't think camber would effect the pull as much the toe settings would. is the car pulling when you DON"T have your hands on the steering wheel driving and or braking on a decent flat road (no crowns)? cuz I had a problem when the dude didn't properly straighten the steering wheel before he started, so the reading came out fine, but the car pulled right when I have the steering wheel straight, but it drove straight free handed.
