Great suggestion on the vacuum pump - here's their blog: www.evcreate.nl/vacuum-pump-power-brakes/ I may use this as a temporary solution until I get electric assist brakes done for my project. Thanks for the great info! :)

Very nice! Could you use the reverse gear on the manual transmission and select reverse on the Leaf drive to get a bonus forward gear? It'd be nice and noisy.

The LEAF "intelligent brake booster" requires ABS control unit signals, along with so many sensors that nobody afaik has been willing to get it to play nicely. Easier to just fit a vacuum pump.

Hur har det gått med projektet? Hade varit kul att höra och se vad som hänt såhär 6 månader senare. Jag har länge drömt om att elkonvertera en Volvo Duett eller PV och det här verkar ju vara en relativt "enkel" lösning som tål att funderas över ;) Kul att se i alla fall!
Hej, Coilovers är nu monterade, väntar på lite mindre stress i garaget så ska jag fortsätta med EVNX. Ärvde faktiskt en Amazon förra året, kanske blir nästa projekt ;)
@@DalasEVRepair still looks really good 😁 I'll check them, as been looking into Rota's for my 3000GT (want to electrify in the next 5-7 years, in restoration stage now)

Ive said it once but i will say it again. hood scoop, hood scoop, hood scoop. Sweet work.
Well done Dala. Many thanks for posting all these build videos.
Good Job Brother!
Awesome job, brilliantly done. If ever I get as far as converting my Volvo 240 GLE I will be referring to your vids.
Inspirational work.
Agreed, I used to have a 242 Bertone

Thanks.
Awesome. Love an NX. I had previous model (called EXA in Aus) in my youth.
Never seen an exa in real life, but those look awesome!
@@DalasEVRepair the early 1.5L turbos were awesome. The later 18L NA targa top were pretty much like the NX you have now only with pop up headlights.
Congratulations Dala! Yep, put it down. The lower, the better 😎.
Thanks Kimmo! 😊 Will do!
@Jan G. Larsen 30kWh, should be good for 200km+ with this gearbox!
Great build, can't wait to get an update 👍⚡️💯
God work done!
Very very cool, congratulations Dala.

Yes that is possible! 😅
Well done! Congratulations!
Hell yeah!! Congrats!
Well done Dala. 👍
You are a real genius!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Congrats on reaching this super important step!
Rolling on its own power. Better than a Nikola then ;-)
How about using a MGC bonnet to accommodate the extra unit height?
Dala the best.
Oh! It could have a nice bump in the hood like a Mitsubishi Eclipse (Gen 1 and 2). I loved my car for that and lots of other reasons.
Yes I think we will fabricate a temporary hood with a scoop/bump 😁
Cool! 👌🏻🙌🏼

Looks like you will gonna be cutting a hood to make it work? What is your idea about it?
He will tale the unit off and mount it on the right side. So the stock hood should fit.
Actually in ep11 he mentioned about PDM relocation. I totally forgot about it.
How's this coming along? Not seen any updates in a while?
👍👊
Need a scoop on the hood!
Why not go with the leaf break booster instead of retrofitting the old vacuum unit?
The LEAF "intelligent brake booster" requires ABS control unit signals, along with so many sensors that nobody afaik has been willing to get it to play nicely. Easier to just fit a vacuum pump.
@@DalasEVRepair for starters you could use regen only and the hand break :-D

@@aiev5545 Wow! You should spread this knowledge to the forums!
how many hours (circa) it took to make this conversion? Are you planning to add an OBC to it?
Maybe 50-100hours? Didn't count 😅
It already has an OBC!
@@DalasEVRepair Sorry, I mean type 2 home charger. Also, do this ecu have some sort of "high voltage leak detection" protective circuit?
@@carhackchannel6038 Already have type2 charger there! And yes, the VCU has leakage detection
Hi Dala, this the project that makes me follow you. I'm wondering if you manage this EVNX road legal. Tia
Not road legal yet, but I drove it yesterday 😁 have other projects that are more urgent, so getting EVNX roadlegal is on the backburner!

Oh it is coming, I just dont dare without power brakes :D
älä liikaa madalla.. ei ole mukavaa millään teini autolla ajella näillä teillä..
-50mm pitäis riittää 😁
