I have an FI exhaust too and have swifts on the way. I am very worried. What and where do you normally scrape? Any tips for DD?

Did you bought the current ones? cause the current ones are more low rider friendly since it's a revised version.

If you can find out when i was made you can find out which one you have. I got mine used and the guy sent me his invoice. I pm'ed it to Tony and gave him a call and he confirmed i had the revised version. They look the same the newer one is just a bit higher than the first.

I guess I could drop it more and make it into a useless 'hellaflush' showcar that can't drive anywhere? Or take the springs out and let it sit right on the rubber?

The roads up here are meant for horse and buggy, the stock 370Z height is already a gamble...

What's the biggest I can go in the front and rear on 19 rays with 15mm spacers all around on stock 40th suspension for a flush look? No drop, just 15mm spacers On 40th rays. Willing to go a little bit bigger profile to fill the wheel Wells a bit.better without drop.

edconline · 07-28-2012, 04:51 PM

It's normally my front GTSPEC 4 point brace that scrapes, it sits a lot lower in the front, probably 3/4 of an inch. Plus I went to 30 profile front tires which makes it lower still. As long as you hit anything resembling a bump at an angle you are usually good.

Juice14 · 07-29-2012, 06:15 PM

ok is anyone running 265/40/19 and 295/35/19?

KaienZ34 · 07-29-2012, 07:31 PM

No most people go 265/35---305/30

Xplicit97 · 08-05-2012, 01:37 PM

Ok guys need some suggestions, planning on getting rid of my rubber bands and negative camber, the camber has already been taken care of.. What I want is some meats.. I wanna be able to have the footprint and the performance my car was intended to have. Wheels are 20X10 +15 20X12 +0.. Probably going to be going to a swift spring setup instead of my BC coils too. So what should I be running to get some meat under the car?
