Hi everyone,

Time to sell my cube unfortunately. Its going to be a very sad day when its sold. Lots of awesome memories in it and its just an awesome fun practical car.

I purchased this cube from Chris (who is also a member on here) back in Oct 2011. I haven't had a single problem since. The car runs very smoothly and I have serviced it every 5000kms without fail (have receipts also).

When Chris purchased the vehicle he noticed that the previous owners in Japan didn't service the car properly causing oil sludge. So he purchased a 2008 Nissan Micra 1.4L Engine under 15,000kms here in sydney as he didnt want to rely on the old motor. This was replaced at 85,000kms on the body. If you know Chris you should know how fussy he is with his cars. Everything has been replaced professionally. I trusted him and purchased the car without hesitation.

The body now has done 120,000kms so really the engine is only 50,000kms old :)

So up for sale is a 2002 Nissan Cube 1.4L CR14DE engine.

Includes a whole lot of mods:

- BC coilovers (have spare stock suspension also)

- Cusco Struct brace

- New Exhaust System (slightly larger thickness from engine to back and got rid of some of the restrictions) - Its quite : )

- VERY VERY Rare RH Alurad rims - 17inch rims

- Guards Rolled professionally

- Endless brake pads - Awesome pads (cost me a lot)

- Big Audio - Hertz HSK V2 165s splits with custom pods, sound deadend doors, amps, phoneix sub with custom made box (hidden away), expensive wiring etc..

- Hid's (8000k) - high and low beam

- Clarion double din dvd player

- White leds through out the car.

- OEM Side skirts with led lights underneath.

- Tints

- OEM yellow Fog lights (most are white)

- Alarm system

Extra Info:

- Always serviced every 5000kms (receipts to prove that).

- Gearbox oil replaced (not that it needed it but got it done anyways)

- 5 months Rego left

- No accident history that I'm aware off

PRICE: 10k firm. Very reasonable price for this many mods on a cube!!

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
