Generally speaking it will not. Stiffer shocks normally have to do with the ride height. it has to do with the internal valving. The only way a shock will increase the height of the car is if they have a much higher gas pressures, which increase the internal spring rate of shocks. Even then the increase in shock pressure only raises the spring rate a hair, so the height changes will not be too affected. Now I'm not sure but I think the stock shocks as well as the nismo's are twin tube shocks. So they are low pressure units.
