I'm currently driving a 350Z roadster -- loving it.

My lease expires in 6 months and I am looking to do something
a little different -- but still drive the same class of car.

I want to build an Electric Vehicle.

while the Z is not the perfect donor -- I'm still a Z nut none the same
so I would like to see if I can find a Z that
is in otherwise perfect condition -- but had a blown engine.

any pointers where to look?

My first choice would be a roadster -- then a coupe.

thanks,

M

 

try a junkyard.... youll probly still have to some body work...

but seriously, why? dont put the z through that, please! get a fiero, those make good electric cars...

not to be rude bud, to each his own. i just wanted to prepare you for the flames to come! one thing you probly dont wanna do here in this forum is talk about choppin up the Z. besides, its a horrible move.

 

An electric Z? It'll be slow as hell and start spreading news that "My stock 2g Eclipse smoked a 350Z"

hahaha i hope you have a ginormogantuan energizer bunny to power the beast up... LOL but good luck bro, I would like to see the outcome...

 

In the forced-induction forum of course.

 

my mom's mini van will smoke ur z keke

 

using LiFePo4 batteries with an 11" motor
you can get ~190kW of power, that's about ~200hp and 540ft lbs of torque

This is not too shabby.

That same setup should get you 50+ miles at 65mph+

Top speed in excess of 85 mph.

 

Top speed in excess of 85mph?! I would hope so lol

 

 

wow, 540 lbs of torque.

 

Easy!

buy the Z and sell the motor, problem solved

 

How is the electric car coming along?

 

Oh not too good.
