Well I'm opting for a car that doesn't have a running engine, but still has a nice body/chassis that I could work with. Basically, my options are these:
Subaru WRX 2.5rs (older GC chassis ones)
Datsun 240Z
Acura Integra GS-R
Honda Prelude (4th or 5th gen)
So those are my options as cheap, but still high performance vehicles. I want to swap out the combustion engine with an electric motor, as well as add the necessary components with it (batteries, fuse, et cetera) Now here's the problem:
My main problem is that I feel sort of uneasy about putting a bunch of batteries in front, so I PREFER (but not require) to have them all resting in the back. Granted, this will create an unbalance more or less depending on which car I want to get.
I think the best cars are the Integra and Prelude, since they're already front heavy, but front wheel drive cars have an issue with understeer. 240z needs restore first and will be even more rear-heavy. Best is WRX, but not sure if I could...
