Nice! Looking forward to the coming episodes. I would suggest using a better mask, even if you are using rattle cans. There are still VOCs. A Sundström SR100 is comfy and not crazy expensive.

As someone who drives an EV for work, I would highly recommend having one of the gauges being 'charge level' as while the range calculations are handy for casual use, they are an unreliable metric when you are going on journeys with enough distance where you come across different driving environments.

@Hazell_NutzКүн бұрын
From a weight balance point of view the back seat was the best place which is why I did that on mine. But from a safety point of view the boot is better incase the worst was to happen but then you could argue the most likely crash is to be hit in the rear. So maybe back seat was the better option 😂

Fellten sell a CCS kit that works with the Orion but there is more parts than just the controller you also need there contactor controller and a charge port with the correct resistance. CCS is hard and a pain.

I wasn't surprised that someone converted the Skyline to EV - it was a matter of time as older Honda Accord and Civic got converted to electric, sometimes it was more for fun, ie. how fast can you outrun somebody at the drag racing. Hell, even Kei cars which is outright crazy, even there's a few electrified Kei cars on KZbin, of a handful few with crazy launching performance.
