  • Price
    $15,000
  • Location Austin, TX, 78757, USA
  • Condition Used
Description:

I bought another car, so it's time to move on. I am open to selling the complete, perfectly running car, but I wanted to offer up the whole swap package if someone already has a roller.  

If you're interested in the complete car hit me up.  It would pull the best money on BAT....but god I did that once and don't want to again.


This swap is 100% reversible. The only cutting on the car is to remove the spare tire well, which can be welded back in easily.

To be clear - everything is 100% engineered, fabricated, and ready to go. I would expect an industrious person to be able to drop this in a car that is prepped in a long weekend.

The finished product is a batshit fast, 2900lb Rx7 (same as stock) reliable swap.
The swap config is comparable and running the same tune as: 
https://electricgt.com/shop/egt-913-...rsche-911-912/

  • Everything listed as <500 miles on it
  • 16 x ElectricGT OX Drive Power Batteries (42 KwH)
  • Tesla Model S large drive unit (tested, working perfectly)
  • Battery cooling system with custom radiator
  • Custom drop-in Rx7 Battery Structure (bolts in the front to the existing motor mounts and in the rear to existing bolts)
  • AEM ECU + Tesla driver + CAN controller (mounts hidden where the jack goes)
  • Custom Rx7 rear subframe
  • Custom rear motor mount (Will need to be welded to frame rails.  Easy work, anybody with a MIG can do it)
  • Custom side motor mount
  • Brake vacuum pump
  • Custom Rx7 wiring
  • Zeva BMS + custom mount in shifter area
  • Charger
  • DC-DC Setup
  • Tesla Model S "gas" pedal with custom mount
  • Drop-in mount for Wiring box, charger, DC-DC (fits in transmission tunnel)
  • Custom axles (Tesla axles modified for your outer CV joints)
  • Custom rear 12v battery mount tray
I'll provide up to 10 hours of "support" to the buyer to help explain anything needed.

I can help coordinate shipping, etc.

So I’m a bit confused. Is the car running as completed ev swap or as a roller and you have priced in the ev swap kit.

some more details on the chassis and paint etc might go a long way. VIN also. Etc. Glws.

More info that I should have added:

Estimated Performance: 0-60 in 3~4 second range
Top Speed: Probably 110-120 mph. I've never gone over 85
Estimated Range: 100-120 miles

It sounds like quite a few people are interested in the complete car. Here is more information on the complete car. I will get more pictures.

Complete EV Price: $35k
  • 1993 Mazda RX-7
  • VIN: JM1FD3313P0209179
  • Clean Blue Title
  • 103k miles
  • Body
    • Straight, really clean body
    • Montego Blue
    • Before I wrapped it in white I fixed a couple small dents on both front fenders and one on the rear quarter. I was wrapping it, so I just epoxy primed them and sanded it smooth. I planned to repaint the whole car after taking the wrap off so those spots are primer gray.
    • Headlights work as they should, all body parts are there
  • Interior
    It's not perfect, but it's in pretty good condition
    • Originally it was tan
      • Door cards and headliner repainted black
      • Black replacement carpet
    • Front seats recovered in black professionally - they are perfect
    • Rear seat recovered professionally but the same shop - it's perfect
    • Rear side panels with speakers for the rear seats
    • Bose acoustic wave snake in the back, but I installed other speakers
    • Alpine radio
    • Crack free dash, etc.
  • Wheels
    • Have original wheels
    • Currently on Rays Gram Light - 18x9.5 in rear / 17x9 in front (<500 miles)
    • Toyo R888 Tires (<500 miles)
  • Suspension
    • Ground Control coilovers (<500 miles)
  • Brakes
    • Stock
    • Rear calipers rebuilt
  • Steering
    • Standard rack setup as manual. Can add powersteering easily with a Volvo pump

For an additional $4k I can include everything to convert the car back to ICE if you want. This offer is only for the buyer of the car:
  • Stock twin-turbo engine - was running just fine with no smoke when pulled. I hand-turn it every few months.
  • Manual transmission (will need flywheel and clutch and three pedals - car was originally automatic)
  • Driveshaft, differential, untouched rear subframe, axles
  • Racing beat exhaust
  • Gas tank
  • All the miscellaneous everything
I'll post more pictures as soon as I can. I'm out of town.

Jon who had a similar setup in his e30 did tons of punishment on his setup including recording 0-60 times. My setup has more battery capacity, and a commercial AEM electronics setup.

You can checkout some of his videos to get an idea of performance:

I followed that build extensively, I was also building an MTech vert when Jon was building that car.

He's busy stuffing a 2 rotor into an i8 at the moment..

Ya his build was awesome. Definitely made me feel that it was possible with my dream car (The FD). Ironically I already have an M-tech 2 e30 and just bought an i8 a few weeks ago. The i8 is amazing.
