The vehicle drives fine on the interstate and around town. It's simply a blast to drive. I'm finishing up the cosmetic aspects of the vehicle now. My face is sore from my perpetual EV grin. I'm still waiting for the batteries to break in before giving it the proper speed/range trials.

Maybe a hybrid configuration with Thunder sky and A123 in parallel. The TS's for some range and the A123 to stiffen up the pack for some high amps.

Thunder Sky? A123?

MR2 mk2 Forklift truck? EMR2

I wanted to do an EV build and the MR2 came along cheap, in great condition and with a dead engine for only £300. I wanted to use a car that would last the next 10 years and be desirable enough for me to want to be seen in. I didn't want to spend £10k on something that would still look like a scrap yard escapee. The requirement was to be able to drive the 70 mile round trip to work and back at 70mph almost all the way. No option on that as work and home are on motorway junctions. With lack of funds I am doing as much as I can with scrounged and salvaged parts. The motor will be a forklift 11" if I can get one and I am using the old AC compressor as the vacuum pump and possibly using an alternator to charge the 12v acc battery. I will make as many parts as I can but I would also like a really powerful controller as the heart of the build so may save and buy one. I would like to have the build finished quickly but I would rather it was slow and right then fast and wrong given there is no option on the 'cheap'. So far I have spent £750 including buying a lathe.

100% complete - means car is registered and I use it to go to work. As for tuning/upgrade - it never ends. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Long term plan: upgrading to LiFePo when they drop in price - likely it is not happenning soon. _ _ _ Charging at free PGE station at work for daily savings:) _________ps: use SAE coordinates on left to manufacture adapter plate for Fiero (and mathcing GM transmissions)
