Negative. Just as she sits in the garage. Weight and road conditions have to factored in.

Again bro if you want to protect your under side you ought to consider maybe like a 1" lift in the back and a 1/2" lift in the front? Just saying.

I appreciate the advise. But my DD is a 1994 Miata MX-5 that I've dropped and has less clearance than my Z and I get around in it just fine.

By no means am I saying that things can't go sideways, but that's a risk I'm willing to take else I wouldn't have bought the exhaust.

Nevertheless, thanks for looking out for a bro.

I'm lowered on Swifts and have not scraped my can's yet (knock on wood). I'm just careful over large bumps where I know the rear is going to squat. Clearance seems to be on par with the local Fast Intentions guys.

Now that's very interesting and welcomed news. Swifts or ARK GT-Fs are a mod on my radar. And like you I'm careful over bumps and non-optimal road conditions. In fact, I only drive her on roads that I'm familiar with. One of the benefits of a DD, I can pick and choose when and where I driver her.

I on the other hand have started scraping my ark exhaust after installing swifts, but roads suck here in PR, plus some of the dips and speed bumps on the road are huuuge. But yes, being extra careful has helped me get you through 90% of the bumps and dips encountered so far
