    If you're talking about Pestvics mod with the c4y core and hardware in a Dayan Zhanchi, then I would advice you not to do this. I did this to 2 of my zhanchis and I thought that the mod made them better, but once I put the stock dayan core and hardware back the cube was 1000x better with smoother/faster turning, better cornering, and much less lock ups

    Define hybrid. Theres alot to be said for changing springs in some cubes to other branded springs because they just fit better. People were talking about C4U springs in ss6 on another thread this evening/morning.

    I accidentally came across the opportunity to make a hybrid. My girlfriend has an old genuine Rubik's brand but its a promotional cube of some sort so its a little different to a regular Rubik's brand. The writing has rubbed off of the white face now so it looks normal. But I was solving it and dropped it and the core shattered and I was conveniently left with all the pieces and all the centercaps had come off. I bought DaYan hardware and core and put the Rubik's pieces on that. Its a fantastic cube haha, fast, smooth and cuts better than my guhong I was extremely suprised!
