ElectricBMW 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 Can anyone recommend a good automotive/mechanical engineer, (preferably) in Lower Hutt? This is because I am converting my E36 328 to use an electric motor, and need (in the first instance) an adapter plate and coupler to join the motor to the tranny.

Looks like there's only one good one in the Hutt, then? I've spoken to him briefly - he's involved with another conversion (RAV4) so he's probably the closest thing to a specialist there is. He won't be able to start on my stuff for a couple of weeks, though... Thanks for the help... I'll probably be back with BMW-related questions later Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
