Fascism and communism are two totally different things. The Chinese aren't either, they're more accurately termed authoritarians. The U.S. is much closer to fascism than China is. However, China is responsible for more egregious abuses of its people than the U.S. has been. Give it time, and the neocons will make China look like a paradise compared to the U.S.

I dont need an English lesson, the Chinese are both fascists AND communists. The Americans may be getting dangerously religious but they havent started running down protesters with tanks just yet. I suspect the ruthless efficiency of the Chinese will make them very powerful this century, but not a place you'd want to be if you have a controversial point of view.

Then again while Im not in a hurry to finance the Chinese economy, Id rather buy Chinese EVs than continue to finance Islam's war on every non-Islamic country, including the Chinese. Personally I intend to buy the new Norwegian EV - better Danegeld than Jiyza lol.

I've been building my own EV since I was in high school. I'm not going to wait around for someone else. Money's been the limiting factor, but now I'm out of college. I will be charging it from a NiCd battery bank fed by some homemade wind turbines placed on the garage, with a diesel genset as backup running on hempseed oil. Can't wait to get it all set up.

Donor cars cost peanuts if its an oldie with 100,000 miles on the clock, and assuming the electrics, steering and bodywork is ok the only cost is the batteries,electric motor and controller? How much is it costing you to convert and which car did/will you use?Im in the UK so if its an American model I'll have to google it lol.

I'm using a Triumph GT6. The glider was $1200. The batteries cost about $2,000(if I use 192V of either group 31 Deka Intimidator 9A31 or Universal Battery UB121100s), motor $1,500, controller $2,500, charger $1,500, and another $3,000-5,000 for misc components, tools, restoration, and a battery regulation system. I expect about $12,000-15,000 for just the EV when all is said and done.

Nice looking motor, hope its weight isnt too much of a problem.The costs about what I expected, do you have any idea what performance that will all give you in a GT6 re: range and top speed?
• Andybabez on 24-Jul-07
The motor weighs far less that the internal combustion engine. The batteries are the biggest source of extra weight but the car should fare ok with suspension adjustments and the addition of stronger leaf springs. Range is simulated to 100 miles at 65 mph if I get the drag coefficient down to .25 and use low rolling resistance tires, top speed is simulated at 140 mph, 0-60 simulated to 5.5 seconds. How it will really turn out is still up in the air.
