Opinions: Does this look like a stock height Z?

Stupid question… But does the car int he picture look like a stock height Z? Thoughts?

Looks pretty stock.

Here are the specs for you to compare.

1st · 02-24-2015, 02:28 PM

Yes

Zbrah · 02-24-2015, 02:40 PM

Stock all day. If you can fit a whole hand between the fender and tires, it's stock. Also note how the front bumper clears the cement block.

SuperZeto · 02-24-2015, 03:04 PM

Totally stock, but without spacers. Mine is back to stock height (with spacers), have the ARK GT-S springs in the hatch though... I had some guy come up to me at work and ask if I did anything to my car lately because it looks "funky" lol

Thanks guys. I was doing a search and did find that diagram Trips. So I went out and took measurements. Appears to be stock… or close to it. Actually, the car seems like its leaning towards driver side.

Front driver: 27.5"
Front passenger: 27.75"

Rear driver: 27.90"
Rear passenger: 28"

I am new to the 370Z coming from other car makers so still getting acclimated to the stock Z. In person its so sporty and classic. I bought Swift springs from Kamispeed and tricked myself into thinking the car was already lowered while taking to the tint guy so I was worried I bought incorrectly.

Just bought the car Saturday and it came with a brand new HKS Hi exhaust system so I started wondering maybe I got some other nice treats, lol. Oh well, if thats stock then Swift springs and spacers I have on the way are going to look great.

Swift Springs look great on the Zs, good choice! Here are a few pix of a car with Swift

Not sure if this guy is on flat ground or not, but the swifts give it a nice look!

That last picture is MONEY! The hips on this car… Looks like that car may also have spacers too, 20mm perhaps. Not sure it pokes out enough to be 25mm.

That stance though! Great! Springs cannot land soon enough.

Insurance back on Z tomorrow and Swifts going on Saturday.
Thanks Merv.

Those pics look great SuperZeto.

I have the same spacers, they sure make a world of a difference!

Zoren 370 · 02-25-2015, 12:19 PM

I have a 1 pair used 25mm H&R that I can sell if you like.

What springs are you sitting on? Looks lower then any swifts I've seen online. And I agree spacers are a must.
