Stock Suspension Nismo Question???

If someone with a Nismo that is still riding stock suspensions and wheel and tires could measure the distance from the front splitter to the ground would be much appreciated.

Default Stock Suspension Nismo Question???

If someone with a Nismo that is still riding stock suspensions and wheel and tires could measure the distance from the front splitter to the ground would be much appreciated. If you could measure on the side right in front of the front wheel, thanks alot!

Are you meaning from under the chin spoiler to the ground - in both the middle and right side (in front of the tire)??

My car shows 7" in the middle and 6" on the right side in front of the tire. Good luck.

Johnny, you've dropped your Nismo on Tein S tech's right? I want to drop mines as well but have reviewed the Swift springs and they are supposed to be better from an overall performance perspective. I would be interested in your opinion on your drop height plus performance regarding the Tein's. Mainly I want to know what setup will be required to get the best performance (i.e. + camber arms etc.) as I currently like the way the car handles but I want the car lowered about an inch.

Thanks Johnny for the link, it helped me decide. I didn't see your follow-up alignment after camber install though. Is the car back to factory alignment spec? Very nice Nis!
