The answer to all of your questions is hidden under your punctuation keys.

And there is plenty of info if you search or simply browse the right subforum (hint hint).

I don't fully understand your post, but I'll attempt to answer your question.

The difference in height between zsp (sport pack) and standard suspension is about 0.6" as indicated on the sticky.

So say, if you are going to install H&R Sport (#50490) which is listed as having a 1.3" drop in the front and 1.2" drop in the back from STOCK, then for your zsp-equipped car, the drop would be 0.7"(F)/0.6"(R)

It's clearly stated on the sticky that the height difference is calculated from the STOCK suspension.

You could also subtract it.

If you have a hard time comprehending basic math, you might want to take it to a shop and let the professionals do the drop. I'm just sayin'...
