Some of you may have already seen this, but looks pretty nice, not as nice as the Mazda Furai, but still nice :laugh:

You can google for more specs eg.,

Basically they want M3 performance with Prius economy.

a PROPER hybrid, none of this Toyota "i'm supposedly good the environment" Prius rubbish. Hurry up and release a practical example of this, with all the running gear.

wonder how hard it would be to make one of these from an existing car... diesel/electric that is...

It looks awesome...

But I've already contacted two dealers about the LEAF but they're not taking orders yet... ...it looks like it will kick the iMiEV's ass... ...But we'll have to wait two years longer for Nissan to bring theirs to Australia...

In the mean time I just need to save up the coin for my own project...

fully electric cars are the way of the future for general commuting with the hybrid being good for long distances, when they can make a car that can be run solely on electric and recharged from home but still have a diesel engine for long range then they will have made the perfect hybrid.

Check out the Zero Carbon Car... ...it has a small bio diesel generator in the boot to recharge the batteries if the trips get a little too long...

    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
    • I wonder if these would be discounted when they have their big sales? because if so would be a great time to actually buy them could even end up cheaper than buying from quickjack in the end.
    • Which grit sand paper did you use on the pulley btw? Thought I'd ask so I don't scratch it up too much
