What's the hight difference between a stock suspension and a fully custom suspension kit, without changing the ride hight in the custom suspension kit ? ... i know the hight changes, but by how much ? .. im using the Holden Commodore SS ... the hight in the main page of the car doesn't change, even when i lower or raise the car .. its at 1440 i think
 
Dimensions given are for the stock car. For that car, I suspect it will be 12-15mm lower than stock, but it basically comes down to checking the visual difference or making an indication on your tv/monitor using tape (pick a spot on the car that doesn't fluctuate much as the car rotates).

Do you remember the stock suspension height?

Edit: this should be in the tuning forum. Just saying.

I think this is the perfect place for this question because it refers to a game default (GT5 Questions & Answers) and not the implications of making the adjustment (Tuning Forum). This site has some good moderators, maybe let them moderate?

Your question had me curious, about how much the height changes, so I spawned me a Commodore SS '04 and analyzed the hex codes for ride height.

Holden Commodore SS '04 (same height both front and rear)
Stock Ride Height = 8E or 142 mm
FC Susp. Ride Height = 78 or 120 mm
a difference of -22mm
 
Great hex usage, not to give an obscene advantage but to reveal game secrets. Two BIG thumbs up.

Is it a set height for all cars or is it different for each one?

It will be different for each car, the only other car I have checked is:

AC 427 S/C '66
Stock Ride Height = 110mm
FC Susp Ride Height = 90mm
Difference of -20mm

Is there anyway you could make some type of chart to show how many much certain cars are lowered? I would make one but I don't have access to materials to do this. It could be useful for the tuning forums.
