I can haz bandwagoner plz?

I used the Megan coils. With 2 people in the back seat, it's pretty damn low... Will post more pics soon.

LULZ.

Drop it like it's not.

i like,

I was hoping someone was going to install Megan springs on their Cube from the Versa.

Turned out great!

pssst. it's tomarrow.

Will get better pics later. Gonna switch out the lugs for black and swap center caps, get rid of the goofy logo and space the wheels out 8mm.

Handling is ridiculously improved - Pilot Sport tires (225/45/17) make a HUGE difference. I'm impressed, and I have some good-handling cars to compare to.

They're stickers.

I'll powdercoat the caps and replace the center logo with a Nissan logo.

Do you happen to have the wheel specs? Size, offset, and speaking of which...what is the bolt pattern on the Cube??

These are 17x7, +42 if I recall correctly.

Bolt pattern on all Nissans is 4x114.3 (or 5x114.3 for 5-lugs).

PS...dumb question from me, but how do spacers work? and are they safe for street use?

I don't listen to all that nonsense.

A lot of the stuff that's branded "Megan" is stuff that won't really "fail" anyway... I have a Megan racing downpipe.

Also, a lot of the stuff that people THINK is "big name brand" is the same stuff, powdercoated a different color and sold under a different name. Go to the SEMA show someday, you'll LOL at how FEW manufacturers there REALLY are.

I don't say anything - It's not pretty when some idiot who paid $450 for a set of springs finds out they came out of the same factory as the set you just paid $120 for.

Spacers - Good quality ones are OK for street use. I prefer bolt-on spacers for safety.

BTW, is that the same red truck that was at Carlisle?

Loving the cube Greg! Looks slick in Black BTW, is that the same red truck that was at Carlisle?

Thanks Homey!

Yep, that's Bex's truck, it was in Carlisle.

Yes. You WILL need an alignment ANY TIME you lower a car.

Glad to help!

I really like mine, more than I did when I bought it.

you provide the roller and I will roll them for you for fun. Like I did on my girls s14 that day, smooth.

DO IT!

Actually, no need to roll fenders - There's no lip on the Cube fenders!

I'll get a few - Still catching up from being on vacation....

Oh, and another question...do you plan on throwing those spacers on soon? It'd be nice to see the clearance between the tire and fender when it's pushed out that extra 8mm...

I have a list of about 25 different car tasks / installs that I need to catch up on... Ugh!

Sweet. Can't wait to see how it looks!

i follow hitman recomendations to install megan lowering springs
it went pretty good, altough i need it a few more tools than what i thought
it took me extra long since i took some extra measurements on the oem brake kit, just guess why? he he
i will post pics in a little bit....i need a little brake i am very tired!

let's see...you gonna put some nice, low offset, fat lip action wheels?

Check it out:

Let's see other dropped Cubes here!
