lol. without the water meth or the nitrous, ive been putting down 474 AWhp in my 2013 cvt since 2016. self built. IFO trophy class winner, Denver Children hospital Best of Show, and one more class winner plaque at 1 of only 2 more total shows. bought it brand new as college grad gift to myself. soooooo sorrry for your loss on fastest juke. It is nice though. dont miss any shifts.

Nobody realises how much fun the Jukes are to drive until they have driven one! Being a fellow Juke RS owner im exited to see what you accomplish with this build.. keep going with it buddy and keep having fun! 😁👍🏼

[@bugokcho482]

I saw a 2016 is available in my area and am looking for a car. Could you speak to the reliability of the Juke RS and how easy/hard it is to find parts when something needs to be replaced? Any major issues you've noticed? Thanks!

[@razl3]

@@bugokcho482 I'm not sure about parts availability as I'm from the UK but I expect nissan parts are pretty well distributed all over. Reliability yes very good so far I'm very impressed with mine. I have a 2017 RS 👍🏼

[@jor6933]

@@bugokcho482I have a nismo rs and I will say that parts can be a bit hard to find if you want OEM, but there is a decent amount of aftermarket stuff available. I suggest rock auto for spark plugs, coils, and internal parts.

I don't understand what's to hate about a nimble turbocharged manual 400+ hp vehicle? Sure it's not a drag monster but it sounds like good fun to daily drive.

[@original__gmebvy]

People hate them because the front looks like an insect or a frog. You’re either gonna like how they look or completely hate them. I used to not care for them at all, that is until I rode in a modified one making 400hp. I’ve wanted one ever since. Hell I want the engine and the seats and transmission to swap into my Nissan Note just because I know a swap can be done

[@tripclipgt6573]

Whatever happens, getting us to this point: Carington: "That's a joke." Dalt: "no it's a Juke". Was totally worth it. F the haters the juke is cool, full stop.

[@BatesLDG]

So I have been in the Juke game since the beginning. Bought mine brand new in 2012. Put a lot of money into custom parts before any company made anything for them, and for a while was the fastest Juke on the East Coast at 300HP (stock Turbo and wastegate). Then the RS came out with its fancy LSD transmission and Recaro seats and I pretty much stopped sinking money into the Juke. I still own it, love it and drive it daily though. I always like seeing new Juke builds though.

[@johnchedsey1306]

I'm 100% fine with everyone else having Juke hate. I had a 2015 Nismo for awhile and then got a 2016 Nismo RS a few weeks. While I'm not modding the RS or anything too wild, it's a fun car that also manages to handle dirt/gravel roads so I can actually pretend it's an SUV. My only real comparison to a sports car would be to a Veloster N that I had for awhile. The N definitely has more get up n go, but I found the RS handles curvy mountain roads more satisfactory (for me, anyhow). Also pretty sure no one will try to steal my RS because a) it's a manual transmission and b) "ew, that's a Juke!"

[@bugokcho482]

I'm thinking of buying a 2016 as well! Have you noticed any major issues in the months you've owned it? I'm just worried about reliability mostly~ Thank you!

Anyway with 240 bhp (stage 1) is he fast enough and for a high model like this it's normal that the Juke never been the fastest car, but I love my Nismo RS with 5 places for driving around with family ❤️.

Reminds me of that time i gapped my plugs, took the car for a test drive, and blew my sh*t up! Lol cant wait for the next vid on this. LETS GO JUKE!

[@matthewwain9958]

LMAO. Jukes are awesome. They handle SOOOO well (At least the NISMO variants). Also.. the tune SUCKKKKKKKKKED on it. (If you know you know, and why ;) ) p.s. there are people now making AWD 'manual' with the original engine, so it will actually be able to take the power and make it useful, unlike the rubbish original CVT. The Juke RS AWD impressed me that much, that even though I own a 2018 STI, and had many powerful cars, and am considering a Porsche in the future, I would absolutely buy another NISMO juke. Sorry haters, but you really need to drive the RS, and you'll understand why. (I don't like the stock Juke's though to be fair).

[@matthewwain9958]

Also.. with FWD... I believe you should really be targeting 300 to 350bhp max to actually make it properly useable. The 1.6 blocks are strong and can take high boost. It looks like you got a fuel cut in the later part of the video (Just before you walked back).

[@SADYsad]

I love seeing more of the juke, its like something new to me its interesting 😄

[@NISformance]

Nice to see a Nissan!!! You need some transmission upgrades for it for sure! We have carbon fiber synchro's which will help with faster shifting, and a upgraded LSD which will help the launch and torque steer. The car has a "F52" transmission fyi , check us out we have some fast drag Nissans!

[@MllG0]

Do you have anything to address the short gear ratios??? Is there an option for tall gear ratios???

[@aaronmenchinger]

. My Cobalt SS turbo is 2995lbs and buttdynoed at just over 300hp at the wheels. I had ran a best time of 13.5 @ 107. With that said it's gata all be in the DA and shifts. You have the HP to get that record. My 60 ft was a 2.2 every time so you need to knock that down and that alone should get you there. I had some all season tires at the time lol

[@coolguyz76my]

I suggest to go for Juke Nismo RS. Parts in Asia area easier to source actually. As in Asia Citroen parts very expensive. As for Suzuki Vitara, I heard from most owners, the fuel consumption is not hat good. I own Nissan Juke 2WD turbo with full bodykit and 19" rims plus Tien coil spring form the dealership in Brunei. since is a daily driven car and that I used commute to work and for my wife to drive, I just made minor upgrade to 19" Impul RS rims and Greddy FV blowoff (used from subaru with its flange and it is a direct bolt on)

[@Torquematterz]

If that block is blown swap something cool into it, idk if it’s worth it too dump a bunch of money into a car that will bottle neck you at 500-600 hp when you could build something that would be fun and cool for the channel like your own Juke-R

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

There's other guy's wasting a ton of money trying to get this car to move out of it's own way too. I was one of them. There's a guy up north who's been working on these for over 15 years and he has never shown a slip better than a low 14 to high 13.. Then there's another guy who pulled off a 13.6 with the stock turbo and a tune.. There is no rhyme or reason to these cars.. People have tried everything to get these into the low 12's and can't... And you would think making over 400 Wheel that it would easy do high 11's and low 12's. But they don't or they can't. Just look at everything he did and it still doesn't put the power to the street. 1st, second, and 3rd are so fast that the only gear that actually runs up to 400 is 4th gear. 4th is the only gear that lets that motor bark. I know I keep saying it, but it is so sad.

[@TerryDeSimone]

Sad indeed... LS Swap it.. lol

[@marcasswellbmd6922]

@@TerryDeSimone I don't even think that would help it.. Power isn't the problem.. The drive train is.. The only gear that allows the car to make full power is 4Th.. That's why there are a bunch of guys showing 4th gear DYNO pulls and that is it, They never show us a slip. And just about every car I have seen up at 400 wheel, they do 11's or at the worst they are doing low 12's .. IDK..

Yeah flatfoot shifting would be a nice addition. If not mistaken this has an UpRev tune. Would require an ARC license. I spoke with the UpRev guys a few weeks ago and was told that the ARC license wasn’t working with the Juke, hopefully they fix this soon.

Got all the performance parts for the upgrades I will need, still need custom driveshaft and some odd parts here and there as well as some custom fabrications, cutting /welding for mounts as well as custom brake and gas lines...

i own a standard 218 HP version ...... that thing is pure fun ..... i mean its on of the best 200+ Hp cars on earth ......its a fine start for ppl who are interested in fast / funny cars ......and everyone i say the same story : 1,6 Liter, 218 Hp ...... GT-R : 3,6 Liter 480 Hp ( first version ) ...... 2x 218 Hp = 3,2 Liter with 436 Hp ..... so you have 40 % GTR engine which means it is good price / power .....
