This sounds like the piston in one caliper has more friction than the other. When you press the brake pedal one piston will react a little quicker than the other, and the car will pull to one side.
These cars will pull to one side unless the road is perfectly level. Most roads are slightly curved for rain water to run off, but if the road is perfectly level the car should go perfectly straight.

These cars were assembled by hand so measuring from the fender lip is not an exact method. Provided the car is placed on a level and flat floor, measuring between the floor and the center of the torsion bar covers is the way Porsche recommends it to be done. If those measures are OK, then the ride height is OK.
