Does anyone else have this problem after lowering their BRZ? (pics included)
 

I lowered my BRZ on Eibach Sportline springs about a week ago. It's not crazy low, but low enough to where I can't get in or out of my garage without scraping the front bumper :(. I had this exact issue with my 350Z that I had a few years ago. I still have the ramps that I used for my Z, but they were pretty heavy and annoying to put down each time I got in or out of the garage. If you're wondering why I don't just leave the ramps there instead of putting them away each time, I live in a condo complex and the HOA won't allow it. Just 1 of my old ramps weighed 10.6 pounds. So I made some new ones today and they weigh 4.2 pounds each :thumbup:. Plus they're wider and look much better ;)

I don't have any videos of the BRZ yet, but here's my old Z. I know it seems like a hassle to some people, but to me it's worth lowering the car :burnrubber:

nice looking Z...which do you like better?

Thanks! It's hard to decide which one I like more since I haven't taken the BRZ past 4,000 RPM because I'm still breaking in the engine. I only have about 450 miles on it so far. But even though the BRZ has 100 HP less than the Z, somehow the BRZ feels sportier. It also feels more fun to drive than the Z. Maybe because the suspension is a little more stiff? I'll have to finish breaking in the BRZ to decide which one I like more.

You're in SoCal - how do you enter/exit every single parking lot?! I could never lower my BRZ - I've already scraped it a few times exiting parkings lots one wheel at a time.

I actually don't have a problem with driveways or dips most of the time. The only place I have a problem is that short driveway into my garage because it dips down first and then goes up. And to make it worse, I can't angle the car into the garage at all since there's another car parked next to me, so I have to go in straight.

Lol dude thats crazy, but when you mentined Z I thought of that video that you posted, but that was you. I'm glad I don't have much of incline getting into my garage, but this car is low as is already.

mebbe pro-kit instead of the sportlines woudl solve the issue....?

Or coilovers so you could adjust so you just clear..

Damn i wanna see a video of the brz too, nice man

Haha ya that video somehow got a lot of attention. That was my Z.

The reason I got the Sportline springs is because I wanted a more aggressive drop. I'd rather just deal with those ramps instead of now lowering the car or not lowering it enough. It's not really that big of a deal.

Thanks! Maybe I'll take a video of it once I get some wheel spacers installed next week. The stock wheels look pretty sunken in right now after it was lowered.

It's these mini dips that made me go with air suspension on one of my cars, but I love the ramps you got going!

Thanks! I had air suspension on my old GS300. That was definitely a lot of fun

Heck I would have that problem without lowering a BRZ.
