I need a little help here from some of you folks here. I was wondering if someone with a GS riding on stock suspension can tell me what the stock height of the vehicle is in inches?
Preferrably measuring from the center of the wheels' center caps to the uppermost part of the wheel arches. I'm guessing it's around 16in. to 18in., but I would like to know for sure.

I'm trying to figure out how much my car was lowered since I forgot to take measurements. Thanks in advance.

and to add to Letsride, the height of the overall car is 56.7 inches

Thank you for the quick response. I simply forgot to take measurements prior to putting on the new suspension. This definitely explains why my drop has given me around -2.4 degrees camber on all four tires. That's almost like drifting camber specs.:egads

Where's that camber kit?!

My front = 13in./ back = 12.5in.

Hopefully this info may help others that are thinking of lowering their cars and were concerned about camber.:

NP....what components did you use to drop the car?

I used the Apexi WS Damper Coilovers. They're pretty nice, with a shock that is almost threaded from top to bottom. So if I wanted to, I could go even lower, but right now the car is at the perfect height for me, that will let me clear most driveways and speedbumps without having to go at an angle.

I've had them installed since Dec. and loving every minute of them, except for the occasional dip, pothole, and speedbump. Also the ride quality is pretty good. Since I went straight from stock suspension to coilovers, I can say that the Apexi WS are definitely stiffer, but not much. In any case, they ride more like the stock suspension of most sports cars, like my old 90' 300zx, or my father's 01' Mustang, even at the height that I'm riding at.
