Electric Nissan R31 Skyline “Shocker”
The Nissan R31 Skyline is a great car to convert to electric. It is popular in the Australian drift and grip racing scene due to the high parts availability as well as many interchangeable parts available from other cars in the Nissan family.
Our electric Nissan R31 Skyline, also called the Shocker, is powered by Twin Netgain Warp 11 motors and Evnetics Soliton1 controllers, a setup that makes for some insane power figures!
We were stoked to discover that the RB30 and factory 5spd manual weigh almost exactly the same as the two Netgain Warp-11 electric motors and the new Reid Racing 2-speed Powerglide.
The main focus for the Shocker is track use, but we wanted to keep it street legal to be able to drive around town, to the track and maybe enter the Street Machine Drag Challenge which requires a street legal car.
Stay tuned for more updates on this crazy build.
Customer Testimonials for Traction EV
In 2019 my father and I embarked on a project to restore and convert a run down Beetle to electric. TractionEV supplied the Hyper9 motor and Tesla Battery conversion kit. James was there every step of the way on this 3 year journey. His exceptional knowledge and experience meant he was able to quickly diagnose and solve any issues I encountered.
The best EV conversions I have ever seen.
These guys are building some of the best EV custom classic car conversions around. Helpful people and high quality results. Their cars even made the cover of Street Machine.
These guys are on another level. There is a lot of experience here paired with passion and attention to the detail. No matter if you want to convert your ride-on mower or a high end sports car: Give them a go!
I have had the opportunity to collaborate with James on my personal project: the design and fabrication of my custom electric Baja Beetle Ute. Over the last couple of years, James’ advice has been invaluable in helping me design the electrical systems for the conversion. His expertise in EV technology guided me through the process, ensuring that I understood the complexities of wiring and integrating the electrical components. Thanks to his support, I’ve been able to create a high quality, efficient and reliable electric vehicle that I drive everyday both on and off road.
