I don't know much about dampers, but is it possible to get a version that doesn't lower the car?

You determine ride height since it's adjustable...can be stock or lower

Seconding this. Would like to know more about the change in ride height as part of the reason I selected an Emira is because of it's relatively generous ground clearance given my driveway

My question is more around is there an optimized ride height where these coilovers are set up for and can the original ride height be preserved (not sure how long the damper itself is).

I ask because I had originally had a set of coilovers planned for my previous car, but after speaking with the company developing them, it was advised that even though the original ride height could be preserved, it was not recommended as it would eliminate any droop impacting ride quality. I'm not a suspension expert by any means, but wanting to get more information before making a decision

That's not entirely true. I had to lower my car about 10mm when I installed the Nitron Clubsports, but you can adjust is as much as you want within its range of motion, which above is listed as -10mm to -40mm.

Consider, though, that the springs are quite a bit firmer than stock, so they will compress less, so in general, you don't notice, and the lower Cg does help handling, however, driveways and curb ramps become much more annoying, even with the minimum drop.

This is a great explanation.
At the highest setting the car will be about 10mm lower is all, so not even 1/2" and you can lower them more than you would ever need/want on these cars.
