Sk0pe Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60935-stagea-ground-clearance/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sk0pe Posted January 11, 2005 Author Share Posted January 11, 2005 OK, and how can I tell if a Stagea is series 1 or series 2? What year etc... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60935-stagea-ground-clearance/#findComment-1153529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminal Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60935-stagea-ground-clearance/#findComment-1153631 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sk0pe Posted January 11, 2005 Author Share Posted January 11, 2005 So, based on the images I can see of member's cars around here, most of you have S1 Stageas?

mcnamg Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 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 Glenn Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60935-stagea-ground-clearance/#findComment-1153975 Share on other sites More sharing options...

poita Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 What is the legal limit? (for lowering purposes!) Or does that differ from state to state? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60935-stagea-ground-clearance/#findComment-1155067 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay95R33 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 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 J Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/60935-stagea-ground-clearance/#findComment-1155081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 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...
