Am i going to have any problems with this setup?
If so, is there any other way of doing this besides lowering the drain at the wall?
The drain is sloped properly but it worries me that the vertical piece is so short.

Don't mind the rubber piece, it will get soldered eventually.

That rubber coupling isn't to code in that application, at least in the USA, don't know about Canada.

It looks like you could solder on a trap adapter. It appears that the tubular trap arm is smaller than the pipe coming out of the wall, so, I think, something like this is what would work best...

Thanks, I'll definitely use that fitting or solder the brass the copper.
My question is, does water drain noticeable better, when the section from the strainer to the p-trap is taller like in most installations?

This is awkward, but...
