As far as height, it's not something that anyone can post a picture up 'cos it's infinitely adjustable so it all depends on how the owner likes it/set it up. It can be as high as a 4x4 or so low you scrape your exhaust on the road. Here's pics that I have of the "kit"
I've got all the pics I took when I installed them with Koni's here ... http://www.putfile.com/album/159191
Here's everthing I swapped. Koni's, Grond Control setup (550/175) and Strano Sway bars.
I don't have any current pics of the car lowered with the ground control kit 'cos the weather's not been good ... but I've lowered it enough so that it barely clears the speed bumps in my neighborhood and the gap around the fender is about equal all the way around

here is a pic of my old car from around 10 years ago now. it was on GC's and Koni's. I dropped it to the bump stops both front and rear for the pic. It takes cutting the stock spring cup off the the rear end and doing the hose mod to get it this low in the back though. but as you can see you can get it stupid low to where the tires rub in the wells whenever you turn brake or accelerate. Looks pretty cool in pics but obviously not recommended to drive with 0 suspension travel.

I mostly do autocrosses and take it to the drag strip with the local F body club. I do plan on doing some lapping this year now that I think I have my cooling system up to task.
I do a little of everything with it. It even gets compliments at cruise nights and small shows.

It is a UMI RR K member and lower arms. The upper arms are the Global west with Delalum bushings. So I have more alignment adjustment available than most.
