Simple nismo question
 

I'm in the market to get a 370z nismo my only concern is the ride height, how low does a stock nismo z sit? I'd hate to buy it and not even be able to pull into my driveway

UPDATE:
I bought a nismo and so far ive only drug once in my driveway but not real bad although i do have to take a very sharp angle and go very slow

It's not the ride height exactly that's the concern but how low the body on the car is. Which I can't tell you.

You'll be fine. But youre gonna have to learn to pie everything when you pull in/out of any sloped area. Thats just the trade off for having a bad *** sports car as your daily driver. BUT ITS SO ******* WORTH IT

The height isnt that bad. You do need to watch out for steep driveways and monster speedbumps. If you decide to drop the car with springs or coilovers.....thats another story. I wouldnt worry too much with factory height though. Just slow it down on speedbumps and driveways.

lol my vette scrapes on EVERYTHING

measurement from the front using a square, the front lip is 6'' off the ground. From there, the plastic cover slowly dips lower. At about 1ft back from the front of the lip; I can stick a 2x4 standing on the high side with about 1' clearance before I hit anything.

Awesome Thax 90% of my driving is on the highway my driveway and a few rough spots on the road leading to my house was the only big deal but when I go to vist my family in ky that might be a different story lol

OP unless your driveway is a 45 degree angle, you will be fine

you will learn to crab around for the extreme driveways

You'll be fine. Like Shadoquad said above, my last two cars had a much tougher time (Z06 and Viper), and both of them were doable. The Nismo, specifically the front chin spoiler, sits quite a bit higher than either of the others. I'm also lowered on Swift springs, and haven't had any real issues.

Now parking lot curbing, that's a different story.......:tup:

I don't think a Nismo is any lower then the non-Nismo models.

The car itself isnt lower. Its the body kit that makes it closer to the ground....mainly the front bumper.

The biggest difference is that the front splitter part sticks out much more than the regular bumper because it is flat vs rounded up. So it'll scrape at a lower angle incline than normal. At stock height, it shouldn't be a problem though. At worst, you'll have to approch some spots at an angle.

Honestly, HONESTLY, know you're gonna scrape, and live your life

Just drive like a granny. For the driveway get the ramps. :)

It is, its .9in lower than a 370z with sports package. There are a few threads here documenting that.
