If any of you have the original MGC4, can you confirm, whether or not, that the cube has the same springs as the accessory pack?
The 'sponsor' part is because this is one of the stock cubes belonging the store, but I have lubed and tensioned it with my own lube (Cubicle Wt 3).

Congratulations on being sponsored!
Sponsored by 1-time-off cube loans, not by contract. It's actually very hard to be on an official contract nowadays because there are a lot of fast kids that would out-compete the old people. I used to have a discount code 'S44CUBES' which was my channel name in 2015, but the code no longer exists. I am planning to be a coach to train future kids if I have the time and they have the demand.
i think this release was just yj’s easy attempt at making the mgc still relevant after the release of the vin. the washer between the screw and the spring has bearings inside it which are supposed to reduce friction, but it does make me wonder what they were thinking considering that part doesnt even move on even layered cubes. I imagine they had the idea then realized it didnt do anything, so they just added weaker springs to make it seem like its the washer speeding it up. I would still be curious to know what would happen if you put the speed actuator in an odd cube like a 5x5, and if that would actually speed it up.
the uv version also gives me that feeling of wanting to compete with the vin but falling completely flat
