Honda Genio 1993 be a racing car


Original car is Honda Genio 1993. But, thanks to the courage Andre Mulyadi, the figure turned into a saloon car racing group C who competed in the event world championship endurance racing cars. Signal modifier of Custom, Bandung, West Java, not just change the chassis and body. Until the machine was converted from gasoline to electric powered. 

Let's start from the chassis and exterior. To design a blueprint, Andre took one priority lasted two months and four months. During that time, for all mounted precision and rigid.

As a basic material selected tubular pipe with a thickness of 4 mm as the main foundation. Then the framework of the original monokok converted into ladder frame which is widely used on trucks. In this framework grafted ladder-shaped frame dome of a tubular pipe of 4 mm by means welded and reinforced with bars like a space frame construction, "To be more rigid and safety," said Andre. 

Done that, just wrapped in a body - the concept combines the F1 and racing car group C - which is made of metal, fiberglass and is combined with carbon. To cover constructed onepiece made of metal. Bodi is then bonded to the chassis using bolts. 

For the legs, original sokbreker converted into transverse vertical model. However, other components such as tie rod, ball joint or tie rod still wear long original Genio. "Other than the three earlier components, all made repeated use of carbon materials," explains Andre. 

Replacement carbon also get to the swing arm whose shape is adjusted by following the increased width of the wheel axis. Sokbreker front mounted with a tilt angle of 45 degrees, the construction is deliberately made hard to carry electric motors and batteries weighing up to 250 kg.

Coilover deliberately used in order to remain stable when a high speed. The options that are specific aftermarket coilover Genio, but all of a replaced with a view to strength sokbreker better. 

'm Back, deliberately contrived more tender. Therefore, the angle of sokbreker played, but not serebah the front. Stand mounting sokbreker any support, said Andre had dikastem repeated in order to remain rigid.

Regarding the driving force, Andre convert from gasoline to electric machines (use 3-phase AC Induction Motor), in collaboration with LIPI. Voltage of 96 volts required by the current supply 550 amperes. energy produced 52 HP at 3000 rpm. To charge the battery takes 4-5 hours until full.
