What did you do with your Z today II

The drop was estimated to be 1" in the front and 0.75" rear. It turned out to be more like 1.50" front and 1.25" rear. That doesn't sound like a lot, but when it comes to front end clearance, especially with a long nose like the Nismo bumper, it's huge.

The edge of the bumper in front of the front tire is only about 4" off the ground, where as a stock Nismo is about 6". Everyone I know with a Nismo isn't having the problems I've had.

Some of that is specific to my driveway, but the car is still too low for me to feel comfortable. I've never had a problem on the street, but I have "puckered-up" a few times. It's just not worth the worry for me.

If I hadn't moved to an urban area, I wouldn't be having this discussion. Where we used to live, I never had a curb to contend with. Different city now and different environment.

You guys are right, the stock ride height is plenty low. I've been noticing the drops on stock 911's and other sporty cars and it's fine.

Yes, I still need to be careful, but I should have less concerns once I go back to stock ride height.
