Here's a good starting point for height settings.
These are the Gt2 ride height measurements. Chassis Reference points are located in the picute attached.
FRONT: 118mm to 123mm
REAR: 133mm to 138mm

As for camber, a good street setting would be around -1.5 (closer to -2.0/-2.5 for track) for the front and -2.0 in the rear. 0 on the toe and as much caster the car will give you with the suspension components that you have, but no more then 8.3 degrees.

Any other mods you have done to the suspension; sway bars, dog bone links, adjustable toe links, etc..

Let us know how it works out for you!

I have mine at GT2 ride height. This is as low as you want to be on the street – otherwise you will be replacing front lip frequently. Make sure you set it 10mm above GT2 height when fitted. In 3 months you will have GT2 height “automatically” as they will set-in and sag. Ask me how I know? Now my height stays solid.

Thanks for the tips! What settings are you running? Mainly street?

I prefer to be safe on the street. So 7 up front 5 at the rear = neutral with slight understeer. When on track, I crank the fronts to 8 and rears to 10 for tail happier car. However, I also have stabilizer bars fitted, so might be different with you.
