Josh's tip regarding drilling a hole in the mounting plate for the last tube in the cage was awesome! Never heard anyone else bring that up before as a potential pitfall. This is one reason why I love this channel. Another is the quality of the end result. Stellar work one and all. Thank you!

Because (1) Teslas are the best selling cars, (2) Insurance companies declare Teslas "totaled" with relatively little damage, and (3) there are very few EV repair shops; we will see a flood of Tesla drivetrains available for conversions/kit cars/one-offs/racecars over the next 5-10 years. It's fascinating. These guys, EV West, Rich Rebuilds, Electric Classic Cars, etc. (plus the guys who don't make videos LOL) are leading the way.

Do these drive units need to be laid flat (w/ the diff and motor horizontal to each other), or can they be rotated? Feels like a kinda fun/funky solution to the frame rail/suspension arm issues would be to basically rotate the whole thing 120 degrees forward w.r.t. the diff (CCW if looking at the vehicle's left side) so that the motor/inverter could sit just ahead of the strut towers (basically on the shelf where the HV wires are at 22:10). Other than CoG getting raised up a bit (probably a fine trade off, given that the polar moment would go down a bit by pulling the mass inward), what would the downsides be?
@Finnspin_unicycles
@Finnspin_unicycles 8 місяців тому
Rotating it is probably problematic considering the diff/gearbox fluid. Fill levels, drain plugs etc. not being where they are supposed to be at minimum, issues with the splash lubrication at worst. I still find it hard to believe that they can't get a more normal control arm done, relocating the rear LCA mounting point forward a bit and the drive unit back a bit (with still acceptable driveshaft angles).

STOKED on this project! I converted a '77 280Z to electric 4 years ago and have been daily driving it since. I discovered your channel when I was working on that build and you were building the original carbon Z. I took the less challenging conversion route, and mated a motor to the stock transmission. Thinking about redoing it with a Tesla motor soon for more power, do you guys have a 3D scan of the stock S30 rear suspension and subframe? Or did you just cut it up and figure it out live?
