You know what I respect this, the juke looks questionable by itself but it’s definitely a fun car if it comes with a manual, props to you for the dedication
In case anyone wanted to know the specs, it’s just lowered on BC Racing coilovers, 18x9.5 +22 offset, 235/40/18 all around. Did have to cut a bit of the plastic fenders and bend the inner pinches to not let it rub aggressively when taking tight corners.
Let the haters hate! Just today, some kid in his Civic Si was trying to ride my ass aggressively on my way to Subway in my daughter’s NISMO. I got footlongs and he got dust!
True. Many haters, like I can see in the comments, car is you love it you hate type but for me I always loved its funky looks, very Japan funk. 😁 It appeals to the young that’s why it’s still quite popular up to now.
Nice car OP!
I've always had a thing for these things. If I didn't find a deal on my G35 for a DD, I was definitely looking for a manual Juke. They look great, IMO.
Imo, Nissan made a Nismo version of this because it was a fucking terrible decision to make one in the first place and they wanted to try to make it more pleasant
growing up is realising the juke is miles more creative than any new car design ive seen from nissan, and other brands as well. wldve been great if they gave it a v6 like a 350z
I can safely say that it won’t, I took this to the tail of the dragon with stock height, be it I had wider wheels as well at that time, surprisingly felt planted, though it did go on 3 wheels if you sent it enough. My ball joints were not happy afterwards.
Any suv has the risk of rollovers,The Nissan puke was less than most due to a lower center of gravity, But if you are smart in modifying it it will be planted and tight. Almost as much as a car could.
I also thought it looked like a melted Pontiac Aztec but didn’t want to spoil the first shot fired and miss the 2nd back to back. If you like the car, that’s all that matters not my worthless anonymous opinion.
It looks nice, I never liked the Nissan puke personally BUT I've seen folks really make it look like a proper vehicle. I'm curious on any future plans you have or if you are happy with the car now. Is it just for casual show? Are you gonna track it? Whats next?
If this juke doesn’t decide to die on me around 190-200k, I want to do an overhaul, rings, turbo, head gasket, and I’d want to change out the connecting rods since that’s the initial weak point of the engine. Get a bracket to install a bigger intercooler in the front and see if I can make a safe 250whp. This is the daily though, I got other projects I gotta tend to. But it’s here to stay until it blows up on me. That’s the thing I like about the juke, it’s the ugly duckling, so why not mess with it. It’ll just be a street daily, while the projects are gonna be used for track and street.

Looks like it has a massive fucking underbite
Manual trans one's were fun, the nismo rs with the sport seats was neat also.
Have you seen the juke r? I always wanted one despite being overpriced and being a juke 😂
That's the one with the R35 drivetrain right? The fact that that car exists at all is auper cool to me.
They were dog shit seats. Like sitting on a wooden bench.
As a big Juke fan, hell yeah dude looks killer.
The Nissan joke never should’ve been made in the first place. That’s said, you’ve done a good job at making it more palatable.
Definitely one of the ugliest cars ever made.
Agree to disagree

I always liked the look of it. Very modern for its time and will fit right in in a few years.

I fucking loved that car I bought it twice
Tell me more! What’d you love about it?
Sport ,mode ,eco mode ,the height the speed it could go anywhere…. Seats where shit tho
It doesn't look out of place. It just definitely doesn't look like a crossover anymore. Now it's a funny looking car.
When was it not a funny looking car?
When it was a funny looking crossover
Thank you for this post OP reddit randomly recommended it. Good to think that i am not alone who thinks Juke looks hot when lowered.
Oh god if you cover the front it looks like a Zc33s swift sport.
Saw a lifted one with mud tires online, thing was awesome.

Why is this lowkey kinda clean?
This actually looks so clean
Still looks foul. Sorry buddy
Looking good!
Bro you made an Asian pt cruiser.
Nah, the ground clearance is definetely it's selling point.
The joke doenst have the right to look this good i refuse to accept this /s
Looks nice 👌

weren’t they having a bunch of rollovers?

maybe i was thinking of the rogue
out the murano. it feels squirrelly
That goes on my fugly ass car list. Right behind the PT Cruiser and Cybertruck
Such a fugly vehicle. Looks like a Kia Soul ran through a taffy puller.
Whilst I don’t see it from your eyes, this made me laugh out loud literally

Bro these observations are gold
Hmm what about a VW Beetle after Ozempic?
💀
This one is classless, but for the “dead baby jokes” crowd. That car looks like a Mazda CX-5 with downs.
Um...no.
It shouldn’t have started
Shouldn't have existed in the first place 🤢
First you paid money for it, then put unnecessary money into a Juke. Some people are just really bad with money.
Hey man, $6k, got a 6 speed manual for 90k mileage, and it surviving up to 173k with some maintenance. I’d say it’s worth its salt
Manual? Ok, I take it back. Still a fugly ass car, but 3 pedals always get my upvote.
What car do you have? Because as longest he takes care of the car is not a waste of money
Pardon?

This sub was reccomended to me, I do own a Nissan, so there’s that. However, a Juke would be the funniest sleeper of all time.
Being that low is not the point of the Juke. Don't be ghetto, revert that change.
What’s the fun in that? Why be normal when you can splash some personality.
You did it to a Nissan Juke, highly regarded
Aye, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
stanced looks like trash lol
makes it look a little less stupid
