Putting the explody parts as close to traffic I see. Making a reverse pinto. Smooth.
No fucking way. Full time tubers initiated 🔥
Boom Pow Zaaappp!!!!
Thumbs up before it starts, you know the deal
I loved the S2K powered Z but this is a million times more exciting to me. The design and engineering involved is so impressive. Tim, you're a machine!
ONE MILLION TIMES!!!!!
This episode should have been titled: Battery Tetris & Disrespected Speed Academy Hoodie 😆
😂😂😂😂
Stoked about the video release schedule. We didn't see anything for weeks or months at a time, but now theres fresh content every four days.
Keep up the great work 🤘
Love the Speed Academy hoodie. 2 of my favorite Canadians.
This car will be so amazing...
Man I how missed your videos. Dudes a legend
Aww yeah Bandito type shit 🔥🔥🔥 We back in this Bih 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 #LetsGeauxxxx
Hope we get to see it at Sema
Best build on TH-cam right now
Keep up the consistent content dudes!!! Haven’t skipped a beat year with this series.
It’s truly amazing the craftsmanship that goes into all of your builds. Always a pleasure to see you all wrenching away especially with something new and refreshing. I hope this gets the attention it should at SEMA this year 🎉
Any concerns on weight being past the front towers?
I was wondering the same thing, but he did mention having scales. I know he thinks several steps ahead, and I would think having the batteries behind the front axle would be ideal for weight balance/ballast.
But for all I know, this could be intentional. Hopefully, we will hear something about this?
Thinking the same thing.
Scales help get the weight front and rear in proportion. But wouldn’t the car be difficult to handle with a large proportion of the front weight in front of the wheels?
50:50 weight distribution is less important than the moment of inertia of the vehicle. Putting a lot of weigh forward of the front wheels will induce a pendulum effect in corners.
Why do you want to put so much weight in front of the axle? Are there not any cells available that can lay flat on the floor pan to keep the center of gravity low and moment of inertia centered?
$$$$ is why.
Yes I was thinking the same thing, having it as low as possible and as far behind the front axle seems like it would have better handling and good weight transfer but they could be shooting for this type of weight bias intentionally, hopefully we will find out.
Was thinking this also....the absolute worst place for a load of weight. Love this project. Please keep the EV detail and explanations coming, would love to do a conversion on years to come 👍
This is the saga of our $500 car going to SEMA, is quintessential SEMA hahah. This has been a great series!!
Let’s gooooo!!!!😍😍😍
You should look into the polar moment of inertia of the vehicle when placing the batteries. + They will be the first thing that chrsshes in the event of an accident. You wouldn't want that
Awesome so far!
Nice work gentleman! Have you weighed the car with the batteries out front like that? just for an idea of what the weight distribution is going to be? Seem's like it's going to be very front heavy. Just my observation.
I love the Easter eggs you guys are able to drop in. I hope you keep fiming and dropping videos like this with all you lr projects
So sick!
Deeeeeepply invested in this project 🔥
I Am very happy with these videos, I wait until I'm home from work so i can fully enjoy the video, Thanks for all the hard work you guys put into these!
Lets gooooo baby ❤
Looking awesome boys!
I recommend those quick pin fastener doodads for that access panel. The ones that just look like buttons. You arent gonna want that thing rattling around. I know this was filmed in advance, but maybe something for after SEMA crunch.
Yalls video is such a vibe i be tuning in with so much excitement like its a 2001 friday night and cartoon network got all the new episodes airing
I was wondering how u guys would place the batteries
Wondering if this thing is going to be a little too front heavy with 400lbs or
So over the front axle? Why not tuck the batteries up against the firewall with clearance for the steering shaft?
31:01 can always make your own. Just heat it up and drop it in used motor oil (of which you'd have a lot around). Clean it with a rag and that's about all she wrote. They will never rust either.
Man, the project is cool and all, but I‘m totally hyped by the fantastic editing and choice of music! Stunning taste there! I appreciate that very much! ❤️
Awesome stuff as usual, guys.
Back to work 💪
280z weight from 75 to 78 is a big swing. Like more than 200lbs. If you want to compare to the lightest 280z, you're looking at about 2600lbs, give or take 40lbs.
Absolutely love the build. The attention to detail is, as always, top notch. Excited to see this come together (and the '32 eventually). Great work guys.
The steering assist adjustment is such a nerdy but cool touch!!
Loving this build... keep it up guys!
LLLLLEEETTTT'SSS GGGEEETTTT IIIIIIITTTTTT!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
LET'S GO!!!

@@thekiddupree5567 my brother I hope you are well
Wow this is awesome
Keep dropping those tips and tricks. Another great edit
great video. you should look at getting some OLFA cutting rollers for cutting the composites, we use them at work. very useful.
A rotary cutter? He has one
Would that be safe in a front end collision?
lol nope
About to cancel my honeymoon to go to SEMA 😂😂
I think everyone will say the same thing, this channel is 🔥 you guys are dialed in on builds
The amperage is also the flow of the electricity (also called current). The higher the amps the faster that 400v will move. Going thicker gauge wire is a safe guard for the current the electrical bits are pulling. Idk for sure but I’m 90% sure Teslas motors pull more current than the Chevy volt so it’s good you upgrade those cables. You may wanna double check the max current draw of the motor and double check your wire gauge rating for amps @400v just to be triple sure.
Love it 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

You guys are great.

those front battery placement going to make the car oversteer, it is always better to focus the mass of component as close as possible to center of the mass of the car not just close to the ground. look up lotus electric evija battery placement as a example
For lifting the hatch, you could bond a steel plate on the back side, and use a neodymium magnet to lift it from the top.
Dude on the left at the start got that goldfish stare
Would magnets work for the access panel it would be pretty trick
Just to clarify, the 600v rating on the cable speaks to the insulation rating. The diameter of the cable is specific to the amperage. Amperage, force, makes heat. 12v system isn't dangerous to humans. Our skin is our insulation, which is good to about 50volts. But amperage, is what gets the wires glowing red and melts things.
Excited about the build for sure. I am wondering what those batteries in front of the wheels are going to do for handling. Thoughts?
Mount the access-hatch using hidden magnets!
Are you going to add sound deadening to the back of the firewall and some other stuff? like corrosion resistant too! straight baller because any attempt to control the sound will help. the motor and everything going to be so quiet you don't want to hear rocks without trying not to hear rocks
Carbon fiberwall
Longevity will be the question. Two things I see is one are you actually getting even cooling which would cause uneven wear of batteries and eventually all that cooling hoses will leak and fail. Hopefully you will be able to work on this without taking everything apart.
Derelict? Maybe that's the style Timbo?
just an idea...magnet on the other side of the service panel. so you can use a piece of metal on the opposite/bay side to pop it off? or via versa
Should just epoxy a magnet on the bottom of the battery hatch and then have a pull tab that you can just apply to it when removing and otherwise when in docked position you could some how use the magnets to prevent rattling
you may have the most functional Frunk in the industry
So much good stuff, that firewall is so sick and I never thought that's a service whole, just thought it's a step-up for rigidity. I love the whole V pattern you're doing with the carbon. Chiron style :D
I wonder if with so many batteries, you would need an intermediate cooler? Or is it ok to run the water through all of them before going back to a radiator?
21:00 everything reminds me of her...
I gotta think that they don't put out much heat. The biggest thing I would think is they would be slow to heat because they have a lot of thermal mass, but I've never messed with this stuff, I'm just spitballing. Excited to see how it all operates in later episodes as we roll into October.
You can glue a magnet from inside the lid and use another magnet to lift it
Those bad boy nuts are used in the electrician world
I think placing those batteries so close to the front would be a bad thing in an accident. I am sure you have thought of this and there is not likely room anywhere else but makes me nervous.
I am a little concern about the battery packs put in the very front of the car, I don't think that's very clever security wise.
But if it's just a show car never meant to hit the road I guess it's OK?
Man, a little awd 510 EV would be mint too 🤓
28:49 I believe you're thinking about cyberpunk style
so Will IS 7ft tall hahahahaha....
im surprised you guys didn't try to do an electric steering unit so that you could put the batteries in a better area. Well at least I would think that could help.
What safety precautions or fab work did you guys have to do for the batteries?
I brought this up and so have others, but they have yet to address it.
🔥
What BMS are you gonna run since you've mentioned you can't use the oem Volt BMS?
hmmm... i cant wait to see what type of dash will be used
The battery coolant loops will be a nightmare to bleed, could add a small bore bleed point in each back to the coolant header tank.
Volts is horsepower/speed
Amps is torque/acceleration
Ah is like your fuel tank size
Just use a Suction cup to lift the access panel in the front it's not permanent but does the job
I wonder if it's would be possible to create ABS function on the electric brake booster. Im fairly sure you can if you use something like the fueltech ECU. Build some awesome logic conditions in
Gland nuts also come in stainless steel
Also what are you guys planning to do to prevent harm if batteries go up inside interior?
What you calling this? I'm curious
240 pha-z?
High volt-zee?
The "shelf panel" should be held by magnets and have a machined/stamped metal pull tab.
Does the AEM controller have a built in POT that can increase or reduce your steering assist based off speed?
can the fixing of the maintenance hatch be done with magnets on the cover?? I myself have license plates on with a magnetic pin.The magnet is attached to the license plate and the opposite side is hidden behind the bumper molding. Still, it targets and pulls the shield from your hand into place from 5cm away. (Neodymium Magnets) you dont need big.
Those batteries right in front of the front axle?? Is that good???
Keep feeding us the updates.
You need to do Amazon affiliate link so if some one uses your link to buy something that you use ie the gland nut kit. Also you guys doing anything with rich rebuilds on this ev40?
Is that safe enough? Imagine there is a lot hot air in those tubes and one gets a kink in it.. ? Or the car flips over and one of them leaks. I would place them under a metal tunnel type eventually. I'm no car mechanic, just thinking as I write.
did I miss it, or how many KWh's this is running?
What's that epic song at 9:00 ? You should put a tracklist under your videos cauz it's dope !!
A front impact might not go too well with the batteries right there. I don't know, it just looks bad.
Easy fix, don’t crash
I guess that's easy since this wouldn't be an everyday street car@@willshubaru
Why do you put the batery this much to the front?? Do you have a Deathwish? God bless you never have an accident.
No no no, here's how it is. Amperage is like torque, volts are like RPM, kilowatts are horsepower (actually). All this is close to being literally true with regard to motors. So think big amperage, big wires just like you'd have big axles, high voltage, you'd want good insulation which is like maybe balancing or scatter shield, or lubrication in an engine.
Lets gooooo im viewer 999
🤩🤩🤩
What happened with the F1 hot rod in the background??
Ever see what happens to a little 18650 lithium battery that gets punctured?
Cyberpunk is the style you're thinking of!?
GG
I am not saying that aluminum hard line for the battery cooling would look sexy as fuck, but I know you could make it look sexy fuck if you went that route.
