more than likely the cats. the drive shaft is tucked way up inside the car, he would have to go over something that likely wouldnt clear his front bumper to hit that and be skinny enough to miss the exhaust.

 

Yeah, I know

 

sarcasm WOOOOOOOSH

 

yah same happ 2 me i went my friends house going up his drive way scrape... going back down in it reverse.. i hear a pop but my z is still fine.. no scratches thank god but cant see the bottom! haha

 

My wife and I found a great house online. Went to look at it and it was very cool and in a great neighborhood. She got out, all excited to look at it, turns around to see me banging my head on the steering wheel. It takes her a second to realize there is zero chance of me clearing the curb into the driveway.

The life of a Z owner is such a hard one.

 

You'll be fine. I have scraped many times. The first thing to usually scrape is the heat shielding around the y-pipe and cats.

 

he is right. dont worry too much, if it really bothers you that much take it to a shop pop it up on the lift and check it out

 

i jump a sideway on my Z (i was messing with my phone so i was a dumbass for not looking at the road ) ...every cool on my im sure ur ok......

 

Why are you up the driveway straight? Especially with a lowered car you should go at a steep angle otherwise you will scrape. (get one wheel over first and then the next)

There are a lot lower cars out there, and get driven everyday. Just learn to drive a lowered car and you will be fine (worst case, you PROBABLY scraped your exhaust or an underbrace.

 

Mine looks like a war zone underneath! We did find that my oil pan was slightly cracked after installing the oil cooler but this might have been done when removing from my old block but I can't be sure since it was done in the shop. Anyway, I replaced mine with an HKS heavy duty pan.

 

that sucks to see that happened to you, i last month i scraped my mudguards
i made a wide turn off of the drive way to avoid scraping my lip and ended up turning a bit too wide and driving off of the sidewalk...

happens to the best of us.

 

Just get a front sway and a front GT-spec bar...it will help protect the oil pan.

 

Good suggestion.

 

i scrape all the time...dont worry about it...however, my transmission just started leaking and I have no idea why...uhhhhhh OHZ NOZ!!!

 

You should be fine, as long as you don't scrape the oem dual flux capacitors that come standard located near your cats. Those bishes are expensive to replace...
