Fit Exhaust and Springs Problems
Ok well I want exhaust and lowering springs. Unfortunately at stock height, a scrape the front of my car 75% of the time I come out of my driveway. If I get an exhaust, say HKS or Tanabe, it'll probably will scrape too. If I add springs, I'll end up scrapping 100% of the time. Suggestions?
(Btw, I will not park in the street... I don't exactly live in the best neighborhood)

Yeah I do that too, when I can. I have a tele pole to my right, and if someone decides to park as close as they can to the end of the curb, I have to back out straight. Lol

well if you already do go up and down the driveway at an angle and it doesn't help, then maybe you should get your driveway modified instead? i don't know if your city will allow it though. i don't know what other options you would have other than hydros or air-ride? or maybe you can just get some planks of wood or some type of ramps to lessen the angle of rise i guess

Yeah i was thinking about getting a pole to put in the gutter cause its the steepest part but the fam won't approve for some reason so I'm just looking for some alternatives.

I am assuming that you scrape regardless of if you enter/exit forwards and backwards.
You are not exactly a heavyweight but sometimes, especially when I get caught on some parking block or curb (and...only tried it twice on a freinds drive and only worked once...) I open the door and push down with my foot. I cant imagine this working with you on a slope though, let alone safely.
Well all this worked when I was like 220..now injured and 170 it doesnt really work...
Umm....hmmm....over inflate your tires
uuuuh...cant do the board/pole thingy huh? what if you put it out and away each time...cuz like that would be lots of fun...
errrrr...another good reason to get rid of the seats and other weighty components...passengers and the like...
have you tried praying?
can anyone in your family lift moderately heavy items?
I'm trying here buddy.....
I might have to get back to you....sorry
