Very cool! Is like having a giant rc trail finder truck from rc4wd!👌😂👍

[@AdamNZ]

Yeah you’re right. I’m thinking more and more about converting mine to EV. Because I’m going back to electrical engineering it might be really cheap for me to do.

[@frankjs]

Hi Adam, any news on this build? Looking forward to an update. Keep it up!

[@AdamNZ]

Its currently lockdown atm, I'm not sure what's being done with it atm. Once we come out I might go and ask and see what's been done.

:)

[@leebaxter7821]

I am interested in how this goes. I have a 99 with the same idea

[@AdamNZ]

@Lee Baxter. I’m interested in doing this also. Waiting on an opportunity to meet with a guy who builds EVs. I could make the motors myself because that’s what I do for a living.

[@SAMSTRECKER]

So how does shifting work?

[@AdamNZ]

Just like normal. It has a clutch and gearbox.

[@adrianherrera1031]

Nice! What’s the hold up? First person to make ev Toyota pickup should paten a kit would make millions in conversions

[@AdamNZ]

Dang you are not wrong. That’s the industry that I work in. I think I might actually listen to this feedback and get something going. It’s the way our country is headed.

[@bigmatlock62]

Another project for you, especially with your electric motor rewinding background you should be able to hot up any EV. Now where can I find an electric train motor....

[@AdamNZ]

Hahaha when I first decided to build the 180SX I was considering building an EV. Although this was 7-8 years ago the technology wasn’t as good as it is now. I was going to convert this NSR250 MC21 I brought a while ago but I sold it recently to buy my wheels, camshafts and to finish the deck on my Hilux.

Is this North East valley

[@AdamNZ]

Yeah we used to stay in the valley but we’re up in Roslyn now.
