Hello and welcome to the cube family!if you are looking for parts check eBay.com or Amazon for replacement parts needed to repair your cube.performance parts aren't really available for the Nissan cubes the engine is the mr18de.the Nissan versa and Sentra shares the same engine and the only difference is the mr20de which is a 2.0 liter engine or 1.8 liter engine.for starters you can install a performance air intake and performance exhaust system. I haven't really found much for engine upgrades parts unless you plan to supercharge or turbo charge.good luck.

performance parts thats available.

1. takeda intake is good and carb approved

2. light weight pulley

3. catback exhaust or axleback exhaust

those are the only performance mods thats available

You may have already figured out that the Cube is like a brick trying to punch a hole in the air. As such, it is not ideal at highway speeds (70+ mph) for longer trips and mpg definitely reflects that.

The best performance feature you can put on the Cube are narrow, low resistance tires, and super lightweight wheels. The BEST mod would be swapping the MR18DE engine with the MR20DE engine from the Versa. It should be drop-in.

Something I had considered is installing a smalled sealed rear mount turbocharger using the dead side panel for an intake. However, running the compressed air back to the front of the car could prove to be tight and rhe CANBUS coukd be an obstacle to tuning. And, going from the CVT to the 6-speed is VERY difficult without swapping the entire engine harness and CANBUS unit. Meanwhile, towing is not particularly advised and I definitely do not think the CVT transmission is durable enough.
