So I have been thinking... I have a car that works but one day I know it will not. And I think I’m going to start saving up for a full electric conversion. The car is right in range for weight, and by time I make the battery purchases the technology and affordability will be there. I have the shell and that’s a huge battle. I found a company that attaches the motor to the stock tranny, and you get everything you need. The have a kit for an mr2. It’s ambitious but I think it’s going to be a huge and fun project. And it will give me the power I think this car deserves. I’ll follow up after some further thought and research.

I know a company in Quebec Canada who have done this kind of conversion for a Honda S2K :
https://electrek.co/2018/10/15/tesla-powere...s-quarter-mile/ I know a lot of labor went into such a conversion. I know that they sell Tesla parts (motors, batteries, charging port, etc) so people like you can use these in their own conversion. Here's the company website : https://ingenext.ca/pages/engineering-services This post has been edited by pitcelica: Nov 1, 2020 - 2:53 PM |
