I'm trying to get a ball park of what ride heights fellow racers are running, I measured mine from just behind the jack point from the bottom of the body join. (the flat 20mm piece that runs the length of the car below the sill) , currently at 130MM / 5.125 inches.

The newly installed H190 has a whooping 1.5 inches of travel and more importantly the Diff snout is all of 1" from bottoming. Note I run the Nismo / Competition leaf springs, which the 1200 competition manual notes are to soft and the rear shackle needs to be modified to adjust the ride height so there is a minimum of 2" of travel.

The two choices are install the adjustable rear shackles or plasma cut a hole in the floor and weld in a new panel that allows for more clearance. Obviously I'll be trying the shackles first and if the handling is fine sticking with that.
