I hope they will offer an armrest in the futur. For the roof rack, wait for Thule, it will be 100% better and cost a lot less.


Here's a list of items I have coming in from Nissan Japan.

Day time running lights (like the GTR’s)
Front under guard (JDM)
Mudguard set (JDM)
Kick plates
Door visors
Luggage tray and net
Roof spoiler
Armrest
Exhaust extender

Going to see what fits our US version of the Juke. Give this stuff a little time...it took a while to get things going on the Versa side and Cube but I already have the companies supporting those platforms ready to see what they can do for the Juke. So hang in there and be patient. :D



Hi, I'm new to this forum, just picked up an SL on Tuesday. Looking at the armest option that is available in the UK model, just curious if we have any more information on this.

Also, I'm looking for cheap carpeted floor mats, preferable JUKE mats, any ideas? Thanks everyone.

Just spoke with Nissan North America and an armrest will be available mid-May, that is for US but was told should be in Canada also. Great news as there is a lack of storage, definitely will be ordering one.

Same ole, Same Ole.. I have as well sent nissan & nismo emails asking to not just have parts to lower the Nissan Juke.. But give it a bit of a boost.. Having grew up in a Jeep it's hard to get out of my blood.. I'm not saying "red neck it" just give it a 3/4 inch to 1 inch lift.. smaller rims and slightly larger tires..

Went to the beach a few weeks back and wanted to take the Juke out on the sand.. but after seeing even the "jeep guys" where getting stuck.. we opted not to attempt the soft sand.. Thou if we could have made it over the main dune.. onto the more compact sand.. we might have had a chance.. and knowing I had my Viair on board would have only made thing easier.

So not just having the Juke set up for sand.. but taking it out on some mild off road treks we have plan.. Nissan, Nismo and now Daystar have all turned my request down to create a budge boost system for our Juke.. saying;

"We do not recommend that you install or have someone else install any type of lift system on your Nissan or this application will void your warranty"


I haven't given up hope of getting a few coil spacers.. But I may have to wait until my warranty expires to do so.

Sort of the same response I got when I sent Nissan an email concerning my question about rims and tires.. their response was like oh you can't put smaller rims and bigger tires on your juke you may void the warranty etc.. So I checked some Japanese juke sites.. and clearly the Jukes in japan come standard with 16'' rims So my theory is correct in finding some rims.. not I just need to find the right tire for the rims.. a bit taller..

That is bull. They would have to be able to prove that the tire size directly caused the problem. If you start talking taking them to court they will just fix it because it would cost more to deal with you than just fix the car.

You will lose some performance if you switch to a tire with a taller sidewall, but that may be your goal.

Agreed, but after all I've always viewed the Juke as a rally sport car.. and not necessarily a street racers.. and I'd just like to be able to take if off road if needed.. (mild off roading of course)

Oh and I know what you mean.. after this K&N emailed me with their warranty info..
