A friend of mine owns a VN commodore wagon with a 2 inch lift kit and 75 series tyres. He can take it 4WD'ing up any beach.

Now he's looking at buying a Stagea and doing the same mod. (each to their own)

To do this he would need to put on 15 inch rims. So the questions are:

Do 15 inch rims clear the brake calipers?

Is there a lift kit available?

Will it put the drive shaft uni's out of alignment and wear them out prematurely?

Do RS fours have LSD as standard?

No lsd...i found that out going up a driveway today

If you find some driveshafts that bolt in possibly that are slightly longer, or get your shafts extended it might work

Lift kit?

Get some custom coilovers

with long shockbodies.....and lift away

dont forget front adn rear camber arms

as well as toe arms

your tension rods would no longer be adequate either

I thought the std rim size was 16"?

at least for the 4WD models.

Make sure you get pics if he does lift this thing up, it would be fantastic to see. Not to mention how much fun it would be to scare the crap out of Holden Cross8 and Adventura owners :yes:

i doubt the attessa 4wd would like constant 4 wheel running considering its only meant to operate for minimal periods of time (like 1% of all driving), so going up a beach using all 4 wheels will heat up the attessa fluid very very much and result in burnt out clutch packs in no time

    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
