Stagea ground clearance

[Sk0pe]

Can anyone tell me what the stock ground clearance is for a Stagea? I am unsure if it's in mcnamg's article section, as I am unable to get in there (just get a blank white page...)

TIA

[mcnamg]

yeah i dont know whats going on with the article section at the moment I tried to get in there to add some more stuff and got a white page with nothing on it :confused:

hopefully its back up soon but yeah anyways the info thats in the articles section is also at http://www.geocities.com/mcnamg/

i am pretty sure there is a picture with all the measurements like track and ride height

good luck

OK, and how can I tell if a Stagea is series 1 or series 2? What year etc...

Series 2 has the fog lights inside the front grill, not part of the headlights. that's the most obvious one. also, they have the NEO engine, instead of the standard RB25DET.

I'm sure there's heaps more, but that's all i needed to know to tell them apart

From memory 145mm

Also Clear Indicators At Rear On Series 2 As Well As Chrome Numberplate Garnish And Different Auto Tiptronic Versus Non Tiptronic

Oops Just Realised Caps Is On Oh Well Too Lazy To Retype Meh!3

EDIT: Computer changed Caps to Lowecase Automatically WTF? :confused:

[andrea.biondo@studen]

http://www.geocities.com/mcnamg/ has series 2 info mostly, anybody seen a site with series 1?

[Sk0pe]

So, based on the images I can see of member's cars around here, most of you have S1 Stageas?

[Terminal]

They're the cheapest and more common model at the moment

[mcnamg]

series 2 models are starting to show in yards in aus now and are abit more exy than a series one model there are lots of pics of both series one and 2 models in my gallery.

the stuff on my site is mainly series 2 because I was using official web documents from the nissan history page and they dont have a section for the series one stagea i think that this may be becasue they didnt have a web site at the time so they didnt list any series one stuff online but could be wrong. a lot of stuff for the series 2 is the same as series one as it was only a mild facelift so there wont be too much missing. however there is also stagea stuff at http://english.auto.vl.ru so try there

good luck

Sorry to hig jack the thread but some one mentioned that the S2 has clear indicators at the rear will these be a straight swap on the s1.

cheers ICE

What is the legal limit? (for lowering purposes!) Or does that differ from state to state?

[Jay95R33]

Generally speaking the min ground clearance is 100mm. So nothing (bar the rims and tyres) can hang lower than 100mm. This includes chassis rails, suspension bits, exhaust, body kits etc..

But the best thing to do is check with your local roads and traffic authority.

You may find that taking it down to 100mm will have a negative effect on the handling though

Also 100mm is to be measured when fully loaded, after much fighting with police over this issue they would not let me off the fine (car was 115mm clearance [starlet] and with myself a passenger and luggage in the back was 97mm) so always be careful with that...
