I want your Neoclassical kit :/

Currently making them up for a dealer, will be flares, stickers and a few other options we have been asked to look into, exterior and interior.

I'm just organising people I know to make them, if wanted will be direct from manufacturer so no Butt Tax for doing nothing.

Woah, there'd be lots of people making copies. Iron Chef and Topstage have mentioned it.

They are not something to make money off and making plugs then moulds isn't cheap, the people buying them off my mate will buy locally even if it cost's more. Below is what is made on a daily basis and that isn't going to be put on the back burner for a few Cube body kits. Kits will be made in batch's of 5 other wise not worth wasting his time.

I do sign writing as a side line and a few stripes with CUBE cut out of it isn't anything special.

Like Chris said, the Rukus is based on the Corolla Rumion, not the proper bB, which is a good deal smaller. I'm struggling with the first-gen bB application because boxy profile was one of the criteria I used to get it through - they knocked it back now the Rukus has been released...

Question - looking at getting a Cubic to replace my wife's Grandis. Need something a bit more economical and easier to park/maneuvore (nearly every panel on the Grandis, save the roof, is dinged!)

Only thing is...does the rear bench split fold? And if it doesn't, would it have enough room left to fit a pram in the back?

It split folds but there'd be room in the boot normally.

Doesn't look like split folding rear bench to me???

Is it because you have a series 2?

hmm 2005 1.5 YGZ11...still no split folding bench?

It doesn't split fold but there's plenty of space for a pram with the rear seat folded down. I have two friends with young kids and Cubics doing this already.

Yeah...the only issue is I have 3 kids, and fitting them all in the middle row would be very tight. What's the middle row width wise like compared to my M35 Stag?

Looks like I might need to see some local samples...

If you're only running one child seat, you should be ok to use the other two seats in the middle row. Either that or fold the middle seat down on one side, chuck the pusher on it and put two kids in the rear seat. The middle seat in the middle row is only a lap belt, so we've got a harness if we ever have to fill the car with kids.

      AC Compressor

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Lots of this, and in older cars, AC is generally controlled by the AC knobs and programming, and the ECU reacts to the load. Modern cars, the ECU controls kicking the AC on/off at the AC systems request so it can be prepared for the engagement/disengagement.

      AC Compressor

      Sadly, it won't happen. The AC controls in our cars are essentially on-off. Whereas the AC in new stuff is more a case of variable displacement compressors giving infinitely variable output.

      AC Compressor

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I don't think anyone did. But it still made me consider. For me personally it wasn't clear whether the AC experience in my car was shit because it is an old system, or because it wasn't maintained. Looks like it may have just been the latter. I see some more modern setup being sold as an upgrade and I wonder whether it would make it drive like AC in a modern car. Where you don't really hear it or notice it. But maybe that's asking for too much as well.   Haha, stick it in a Nissan Cube and you end up with a driveable fridge I'm not doubting your experience. Just thought it was interesting to hear the AC technician's thoughts on it.

      AC Compressor

      By Butters · Posted

      Guess I should be hunting down one of these big ol ford units then for max flow ....  I've had fresh gas in mine and it was never as cold as it is now . The compressor could have been trash though, like I said I am one example with a bunch of unknowns.

      AC Compressor

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't know if anyone was seriously suggesting a retrofit of an Echo compressor in place of a more-or-less working original comp. You'd have to change the hoses at the bare minimum to do so, and that will definitely add significant cost. I had to get my hoses modded when I did the engine transplant and chose to use the Neo's AC over the even older R32 comp. That was startlingly more expensive than expected for what looks like a simple welding job, and a massive pain in the arse when it turned to have a pinhole leak in the weld too. The Frenchie's kit is for people who have next to nothing of the original system or have more than that but some of it is a bit shit and better off thrown away than salvaged. If you've got 90% of the system, you just patch it up. Mine is currently degassed because it apparently has a big leak somewhere. If I find it is the compressor, I will be looking to take my spare comp to a shop to assess and/or recondition, rather than contemplating a retrofit to anything off-brand.
