I had an Invidia Gemini exhaust on my 370Z and I don't recall it hanging significantly lower than the stock exhaust. Here's a picture showing the lowest point, which is at the rear-most joint which is just behind the rear diff.


My car was lowered by 0.75" in the front and 0.5" in the rear. Didn't have any problem with scraping. I haven't heard of other Gemini owners report of rubbing either, unlike some FI exhaust owners with lowered cars.

The tips are adjustable so if you want a little poke

Excellent contribution to the thread.


OP, the exhaust sits pretty close to stock levels from what I recall.

The tips are adjustable, but if you go with the double walled titanium or stainless tips they will stick out pretty far and not give you as much movement, in or out.


Go with the single walled titanium and it will give you a lot more room for adjustment.

honestly is not that bad because u rarely bent all the way down to look at the exhaust. It looks just right if you look at it standing up. With the Z big round back, it comes out just enough to show the blues.

It pretty much sits stock, maybe a tad bit lower just because of the bigger piping. I haven't had an issue bottoming out or denting the mufflers.

I've just installed the Invidia Gemini Rolled Titanium tip catback exhaust. Doesn't hang too low at all, as these pics show.
