Hayabusa swapping electric car part 11! Almost Done
We have a long list of stuff to do with the city car before we get it driving my plan is I’m going to start with the front of the vehicle and then move my way backwards and try to get everything knocked out that’s the plan I don’t know
How much we’re going to get done in this video we’re going to try to give it our best shot back in episode 3 I deleted the stock steering car and I’m replacing it with this 1.5 in chromal tube with high quality bearings inside I’m going to weld on this quick release
Adapter all right so we got our tube here with the steering shaft up in there and we welded on the quick release and now we’re going to bolt this into the car I’ve cut it it pretty long to begin with we’re going to go ahead trim it to
Length and give us some extra room up here to adjust in Case we have very terrible leg room now we connect the steering shaft to the steering rack using U joints and I did make sure to clock him properly in Phase I think All right and here is our finished steering shaft we have lot collars on both of the ends there just as expected the steering column is very very loose so I might have to relocate the entire steering rack and probably drill a hole right here it is kind of a shame to throw away
This beautiful Dash panel but luckily my friend John knows a thing or two about wiring and he’ll probably help me rewire the whole Car now what’s going to make this thing a lot harder is the wiper motor right there it’s kind of in the way uh if we deleted it it’d be a lot easier to mount the steering column but I think I’m just going to keep it so at this point I
Really wasn’t sure what to do there’s so little space back there I can’t even get in and weld the steering column in place so I decided I’m just going to sleep on it and figure out what I want to do next hey wake up wake up what’s
Up what’s this on my head where am I a sleeping mask oh that’s right this video was brought to you by Manta sleep this is one of the best sleeping masks I ever wore most comfortable and the quality of sleep I’ve been getting is just amazing
On top of that this mask is fully adjustable and insanely breathable and it’s the world’s best sleeping mask this is the sound mask so it’s Bluetooth and it has a 20 hour battery life two times more than the competitor and I can listen to my favorite Tunes as I doze
Off antis sleep has other mases you can choose from like the Pearl mask and the silk mask they even feature these eye cups that don’t put pressure on your eyes and eyelids you can sleep on your side and they won’t bother you if you’re a light sleeper this might be the
Perfect solution for you man to sleep also believes in prap so if you need to dose off at work go for it now guys I see absolutely no light coming through this mask this really is an amazing mask and it has really improved my quality of
Sleep so guys check out man to sleep at the first link in the description use the code vcil to get 10% off your order again that’ll be the first link in the description check it out if you want to support the channel but let’s go ahead and get right back to the
Video okay let’s see if this works spot on [Applause] I guess let’s hope nothing catches on Fire that Sketch R the city No more play well there is a little bit but it’s not the end of the world so now I need to W the front subframe I’ve been putting it off for a long time because of how hard it is to get back there uh the rule of thumb is
You want to do all your welding while everything is still bolted on and since I’m taking it out I’ll go ahead and paint it and then here what I’m doing is adding even more frame support to the frame Rails on mind here it is guys this is a unbelievably light subframe probably only weighs like 10 lb maybe 15 and it just came out looking so SI So there’s no kill like Overkill so I’m going to bend out an aluminum bar weld it to there to there and then to there to give us a second place for this strut mount to mount to it’s not that I don’t trust this it’s just if you think about
Coming down from a wheelie that’s you know 1,500 lb of force on those buckets so yeah I want to make sure they’re beefy To the you’re You’re the sunshine on my mind we’re burning through the sea y the sunshine on my mind we’re burning through the city of Lights Schnitz Racing came in clutch once again they sent me a Sidewinder exhaust now typically these are designed for bikes that are very low and for drag racing only this is supposed to make some big Power uh it’s really designed for nitrous engines but we’re going to use it on a n non
Nitrous application hey All righty guys so check that out that looks beautiful but one of the issues I’m seeing is that pipe is going to hit that subframe so either I can clock this downwards or I can take out like an inch from this section right here that way it
It clears that bar so now I’m going to mount up my aluminum racing seats I can’t see anything if you aren’t familiar with the backstory because of the roll cage the bench seats no longer fit even though I kind of wanted to keep them hey man that Freaking all right so I got my seat tabs tacked in I marked the holes going to drill them and then tigil these mounts out then we’ll have our second set of mounts up here into the roll Bar [Applause] All right guys so we got the seats mounted that was super time consuming and it took so long the harnesses should be pretty simple because we’ll just use the stock uh mounting holes for the seat belts think I’m going to start finishing up the dashboard because I kind of
Messed up cutting it then we’ll probably start working on the brakes and then the exhaust that took us like 5 days to just cross out the these things 5 Days we got some red seat covers here I decided to go red to pay tribute to the stock red bench seats which I really wanted to keep but wasn’t able to because of the lack of space but man wow that looks amazing guys I was hoping
It was going to match the car a little bit better but I guess I could just paint the carpet this color literally it’s like a Lambo like if you just squint your eyes in fact I’d say it’s even sicker than a Lambo now look I buy
All my car parts for full price I don’t get any discounts on the car parts I’m not big enough yet but if there are any car companies watching ing hit me up oh yeah dude that is that’s mint that’s mint yeah I feel nice and bolstered up
These seats are mounted on 5/ in bolts that’s basically something you’d mount an LS engine with as for the seat harnesses I can literally just use the stock Factory holes and so the harnesses won’t be that Hard All right so I got the radiator all figured out kind of a process to get it up in there but what are you going to do there’s no way it’s coming out it’s very nice and strong mounted on over bushings oh and I also added these little spacers here as per request I
Want to see about mounting the stock crash bar on this car I know I didn’t write it on the list but I figured while we’re here might as well just try to make it work something soft to absorb energy just in case you know cuz I really don’t plan on crashing this car
All right yeah it kind of sticks out too much what I’m going to do is cut out some plates here quter inch plates tap him and that’s what this bumper is going to mount to Well the bumper would have to stick out like 2 ft so that’s a noggo but you know we can build a different bumper off those plates so that is the front end all done now I’m going to work on the Headers [Applause] A So I decided just to take out the bend and kick them out more to the side maybe some of you guys seen this coming my first ever full stainless steel exhaust yeah I think I want it pointing downwards somewhere like right There Yeah
