figured i should start a build thread here!
a while ago i bought a 196x's nsu prinz for about $400 including shipping. since then i struggled to find a power plant that could fit into its tiny bones. then my wife got her fit ev, and i a fiat 500e. it was now clear, i would start an ev conversion.
so now i had a good plan, get some CALB 180Ah batteries and shove them around here and there and everywhere.
then i decided to check out what i got myself into.
thats the rear hub. a silly y plate that bolts on mounted to a swing axle. not an ideal arrangement. so rather then dealing with finding parts for a hyper rare car i went with what i know, miatas.
found a friend of mine who was parting out his old racecar and pillaged it for parts.
