Lowered! Megan Racing springs that I’ve had since November finally went on along with my summer wheels. My tsurikawa finally drags along the ground.

For reference, this is how the Cube sat last year:

I’m ok with ricing the shit out of this thing purely on the strength of that name.

Is there any reason to get a Cube over a 1st gen xB or a Kia Soul?

More features as standard on the Cube than the gen 1 xB. I just didn’t care for the Soul when I tested one.

The only thing I can’t get behind is those eyebrows. What’s the next plan?

Now you need to do something about that stock grille with the Nissan badge.

It’s a lot newer than the 1st gen xB so it will be a bit more modern, between it and the Soul it’s down to preference. Or possibly the deal that you can get.

I actually have a billet grille with a 90s era Nissan badge that I swap back and forth, depending on my mood. The grill I really want is 230 dollars and I just can’t justify that.

This too, I was able to get a mid level cube with a few options for less than I could’ve gotten a base model Soul for. This was almost 2 years ago though so I dunno how the market has changed since.

Dunno yet. I’m enjoying it as is for now. There’s a few things I’d like to do, LEDs around the interior (Nissan offered a optional 20 color LED underdash kit), maybe a new drivers seat (something from Bride, with more support than OEM seats). Maybe a carbon fiber hood for maximum rice. I’d like to get a lower strut bar at least.

You pumped for the snow on Sunday? I just put on my summer tires too. Gonna avoid driving that day lol. I am down in Lakewood (also Jersey!)

I actually really like it, even the skyline decals. Now you can be like “This car is so JDM, it has a picture of the JDM on it." Xzibit's head would explode.

I support the carbon hood. A black wrap on it would be cool.
