How much do the CS coilovers raise or lower the car per turn?

I’ve been setting the ride height in my car, and took it to get alignmend today and verify heights on their nice level lift. Beats measuring on my concrete garage floor. After doing so, the camber was great and perfect, and we went ahead and set toe for now, but I learned (and expected) that I need to make a few final adjustments to the height in the front +2mm and rear +6mm, then I can take it back to the alignment shop and double check the height again, set camber this time, and set the toe again, and wrap this up. Does anyone here know how much it changes per turn? I know it is not a 1:1 ratio, and I’ve been having a tricky time figuring it out exactly. It would save me a ton of time if I knew the exact number. Thanks for any help.

No. It’s a ratio. I’ve looked only and found everything from a ratio of 0.7, which would be about 2.6mm per turn, and also read 12 turns equals 4mm. Huge difference. I honestly had a hard time telling myself and just wish the WSM listed something. Would make sense, but it does not. I can figure it out, but I prefer to pay for only 1 more alignment. Not 10. I’m also super tired of removing coilovers, adjusting height, driving, adding 350lbs of weights, measuring, repeat. Would prefer to do it 1 more time. Not 10. Haha.

 

That’s actually exactly what I am planning on doing today. Thanks!

 

I remove the coilovers to adjust height to make raising and lowering the perch much easier. I don't want to strip the threads on the coilover body either. Removing them is the easy part once the car is up and wheels off anyways.

 

Thank you. I just finished adjusting it and I was getting around that number. Thank you for confirming! Moved the rears up 2 full turns and am going to raise the front 1/2 turn each tonight, then go finish up the alignment tomorrow morning. Set right at 103/123.
