  • Well, it was just a matter of time. We rebuilt this Nissan Juke Nismo RS barely more than a month ago. The guys down at 2J Racing have a 400+ HP package that was just too good to resist. The Juke lends itself to making this type of power pretty easily actually. Turbo, intake, exhaust, intercooler and supporting mods. With some higher octane fuel and a tune, the little 1.6L can crank out almost triple its factory horsepower rating to the wheels!
    As with almost any project, there were a couple snags along the way. Both with the physical wrenching on the car, but also the time frame and logistics. With a trip already planned down to the Tail of the Dragon in North Carolina. We had to capitalize on the drive that would put us 3/4 of the way to Atlanta where 2J racing is based out of. Come join us on the twist and turns and putting together one of the highest horsepower Nismo RS Juke's in the country!

    This thing is so awesome. I'm telling you right now, no one gets there feelings hurt losing to a ZR1, crazy modded 911, Tesla, twin turbo r8 cart, or any one of those fancy cars. You get smoked by a Juke!?! That's a bad day man. So excited to see this thing built, great video!

      I wish we got them with the DCT as opposed to the CVT for the auto option, the auto FWD ones will hold up to 300 whp, the auto AWD ones will only do around 265 whp. The DCTs were cheaper to fix and easier to make power on.
      If I had FU money I would have imported so many of the DCT by themselves to the States and work with a Nissan specialist shop to reverse engineer them for potential customers here.
      Nissan makes great engines but their choice of transmissions to use with them is sometimes questionable at best
