Re: Tesla Model S Front motor SDU for sale

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Well I couldn’t resist spinning the drive with MG 1 and MG 2 now the power shift is welded.
The mounts are sorted on my test chassis so now to the next challenge…the driveshafts!

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Thanks Tom, anything else I can try in the interim?
I have a crude resistance rope setup on each drive hub that I could use to increase the load.
Any point in trying MG1 & MG2 together for a spin?
I am currently fabricating the drivetrain mounts to fit on the Ghia pan.

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Have just welded the Prius Power split device and reassembled.
Did a quick test using MG2 only with revlim set to 13000
Is there anything else I can do?
Thanks

Re: Unlocking the power/torque of Prius gen 3 drive train?
Thanks, I will start stripping it down and weld up the power split.
Just wanted to see if it was worth my while installing it into the Ghia

What are you going to do with all the “spare” battery boxes, fittings and cooling racks? I have mine and cannot think of what to do with it!

Great stuff! Can’t wait for you to figure out how to connect the two packs (one or two safety boxes) and the charging setup.

Yes, avoid the red bushes if you want to keep your fillings!
