How low is the Nizmo

BobQ · 12-03-2009, 08:43 AM

I am currently looking at a Nizmo, how low is it really? Do you find you hit stuff with the front? I have a steep driveway and am afraid it may not go in with out a scrape? Of course I am going to get it anyway!!! Any thoughts would be appreciated!

i have the touring sport non lowered with chin spoiler and if i back out of the garage too fast the chin spoiler scrapes on the lip between the garage and driveway...

as far as getting into the driveway, best to take it at an angle, instead of straight on...

Mine scrapes the spoiler every time. Slow entry at an angle.

Personally I don't think it's that low. My lowered Corvette scraped real bad backing out of the driveway but no problems at all with the Nismo. Its lower than stock but definitely not slammed by any means.

I was worried about this too...the drive leading into my parking garage is really steep, but it starts to go up, then dips down, then back up to the entrance to the garage. guess ill just make sure i'm on an angle and go real slow.

The lowest part, which are the cats and most of the exhaust is 4.72 inches, the 370z is 4.84 inches.
