I don't see any bolts for the inner control arm to frame called out. I don't see them in the solidworks parts either. I would think these would need to be...
I don't have the answer to the lower control arms, but I went to a local machinist shop and bought a tapered endmill with the 3 degree taper. My beat up old...
I find all kinds of tapered endmills. This gave me the clue that I needed for the tapered holes. Thanks This e-mail transmission may contain information that...

What I don't get about this car is that it has a cD of .27, which is worse than a Prius. There's also a good sized turbo charged gas engine in it. The specs...
Which car are you talking about, the Honda Insight (first generation), the Honda Insight (second generation), or the German Diesel? The first generation...

Looks like mine is the older one cause the manual format is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2. Don't know if it has any less pictures, and the large format diagrams are the same,...
I had suspected that the mileage figures of the Avion were unrealistic, there really was no official verification as far as I could tell, and it is very likely...

You can maximize the life of your hole saws by: a)setting your drill press at the slowest speed (250 rpm on mine) b)use slow feed rate and C)keep the saw teeth...
Well I'm confused. So far as I recall, aircraft aerodynamic airfoil drag is given as a CD number starting with 1 for a thin flat plate (at zero-angle of...
... Some simple aerodynamics from my "The Illustrated Guide to Aerodynamics" book. (not exactly a high-powered reference, but...) Drag =Cd x q x A Cd (capital...
I'll use the oil this time. I agree with the 12mm on the lowers. Now the .48" hole diameters on the uppers don't seem to match any standard bolts. But as you...
Additional support at these brackets looks like a good idea to me. I'd do something simple like figure 6.4. I'll probably add these later. Right now my plan...
I'm guess I must reply to this thread to organize a few things. -the beginings First of all, I came from the same school as the Avion crew. Infact, they...

I would challenge the qualification of a EV1 as a "production vehicle". It was a mass produced prototype but it was never produced for the retail market. "The...
The EV1 was mass produced on a production line at a plant in Lansing, MI. In 1997 they built 660 units, and another 457 in 1999. Wikipedia says it's a...
Well, a .195cd on the EV1 is close enough to make my point. I'ld tend to believe the .195 because I asume they have standards that work well. But still not...
