If you lowered the suspension.Yes it does change the steering geometry.This means you need a wheel alignment and that may change the position of the steering wheel.Hope this helps

Hey lowering the car has alot to do with the way the car steers... a wheel alingment usualy will only adjust to suite your tyres, if you have lowered your vehicle it will effect your bumpsteer etc.. im guessing that it is worse when you brake? to fix this problem you are best to let your mechanic know that it has been lowered and is now not steering correctly and ask if there are any other parts that need to be replaced to compensate the vehicles height, unfortunately when playing with ride height you often are required to replace more than just springs.

I am experiencing shimmying on the right front wheel of my car when I drive over 50 mph. Seems more than just being out of alignment. Suggestions?

you could have a bad tire or balancing is needed, you would need to move the tire to rear and see if shimmey goes away, if it does then you know its a tire, hope this helps.

Where are the fuse boxes located in a 1999 subaru impreza?

The fuse is down on the right side of the steering wheel. It is below the plastic dash. Its a small box hidden away to the right. Small plastic square lid. Easiest to find if u scoot the seat right back and have a good look above the accelerator to the right!
