You still need manual tranny, you will use clutch disk as part of motor coupler. You will not need flywheel, but still need clutch disk, because it has splines to match with tranny shaft. Automatic tranny is very difficult to use in EV, search this forum to find out why auto tranny is no good for EV.

Hello, I am wanting to do a miate conversion and am looking for a car. I read you went clutchless.....does that mean I can look for an automatic miata and by pass the tranny, or do I still need to look for a manual tranny car to convert? Oh and why/how. Thanks so much,
Jameson
