Model 3 front drive unit specifications

Hi All, Does anyone have the specs for the model 3 front drive unit, or can post a link on where to find them? I'll put them on the wiki then. I'm mostly interested in the power figure and dimensions (or even a 3d model?) to decide on whether to look at using the front or rear for the next step of m...

Re: Project RX8 , Prius gen2, Lexus transaxle to rwd

Love to see a pick when installed. When I upgrade my batteries, i'd like to use a solution like that in mine. Maybe re-instate the original boot floor to make it look a bit more legit. Probably cheaper to just buy another rx8 instead though!

I'm amazed how much you can fit in the boot. Really nice design. Cutting the boot floor out of mine seems like something of a mistake now!

[SOLD] E46 BMW Touring plus parts for conversion.

Hi All, I'm planning on selling my 2001 BMW e46 Touring, which I had planned to convert. Note that this is an 'X' reg car, meaning it's a pre-2001-rule-change car, so it can be re-registered as an EV in the UK. It's still got the 330d diesel engine in it, and works great, but I don't have time now t...

Was it much of a mission to chance the heating element in the cabin? Is it a dash-out job?

Re: UK IVA Modifications

Thanks for the explanation on the Q plate issue. I'm relieved to hear that it's more of a historical / social issue rather than any sort of technical / legal reason for not wanting one, although I'm sure insurance would likely be less readily available and more expensive. For me personally I don't e...

I've read your thread on the mini forum. Sorry to hear about your situation. There's no chance my car will not need an IVA, as i've cut the boot floor and drilled multiple holes. One thing which I'm curious about is why having a 'Q' plate is so bad? Are there significant tax / legal / insurance impl...

If random brackets are welded onto parts of the chassis or monocoque, any idea how they'd be treated? Is it clear if that would be considered an altered chassis?
