SOLD: For Sale: 1993 Mazda RX7 R1 - LS6 Swap
A labor of love for the past 13 years the car has been gone over and modified bolt by bolt.
The latest upgrades encompass a full engine overhaul with major parts including ported heads, Texas Speed cam and LS7 clutch kit with all new supporting components along with a full AC install (outlined in mod list below).
The initial LS engine swap was done at 52,814 chassis miles with a donor LS6 engine/T56 Tremec transmission with only 33k documented miles. As the car sits with the new upgrades it has 53,330 original chassis miles (this may go up a bit since the listing, but nothing major). The car has been professionally tuned with HP Tuners by HP Logic in West Palm Beach and professionally ‘street’ aligned by Bello Motorsports.
Driving this car is an experience with the power to weight ratio and zero ‘nanny’ devices to keep your right foot in check. This is a car you have to actually drive.
The interior is in fantastic condition for being a nearly 30 year old car but the exterior could use a refresh. The bumpers, rear deck lid, wing and hood all have fresh paint and clear. There are small dents throughout and some dents that a PDR guy should be able to pull out without issue with how thin Mazda sheetmetal is.
This car turns heads wherever it goes so be prepared to answer lots of questions when you park.
Full documentation on all work done to the car along with hundreds of build pictures available.

Not one, but two separate transmissions with the SAME problem. The internet will say no, but I say otherwise. Backstory: Two separate 4L60E transmissions with 2nd gear slipping (full range of throttle) and 2-3 gear shift flares (slips). Every level of diagnostics was done until the shift servos were removed to reveal major wear on the 2-3 servo collar. Your experiences may vary. Video rehosted ...

Imma be buying a 2011 Camaro with 85k miles what website did u use to get the 2012 steering wheel
Ebay
@@Projectfdthank you sir
Do you have a parts list for what you need from the donor truck what you’re making model it was
Did u ever get ur power to work
Had this issue replaced the swervo with a remanufactured one shifted fine for a bit then it would slip randomly then go back like nothing happened now it's slipping again what can be the cause to wearing out a remanufactured swervo?
@@SantiagoCastro-wp8bw most likley, they are so cheap new a reman doesn't make sense. Like I said in the video that rebuilt trans had a 'reman' (aka regasketed one) but due to the wear on the aluminum collar it leaked anyways
@@Projectfd yea the snap ring on the "new" one came loose shortly after and leaked fluid out of the servo cover and had be adjusted back into place but it didnt cause any slipping this was days after it was installed now a couple months later its slipping again so I am going to order a new one any recommendations from where to get it from ?
@@SantiagoCastro-wp8bw used this servo, worked perfect. Phoenix Transmission Parts 4L60E 700R4 Corvette Servo Piston Kit for 2+4 Band FITS GM a.co/d/08TcmmvD I have zero affiliation with them, just know it's bolt and go without an issue 👍
@@Projectfd ok thanks so you just ended up getting the kit and putting it on a remanufactured servo and it stopped slipping ? Gonna try this out on my 700r4 see if it works ill come back next week with results
@@SantiagoCastro-wp8bw that was the magic sauce
You think this would also cause a delayed shift from 1 to 2 until u let off the pedal during normal driving. But under wot, engine will redline w/o shifting to 2nd
My 700r4 slips whn cold from 1-2 an flares 2-3 in higher rpm. Iv had this servo but never installed. Guess will see if it fixes the problem or not.
Excellent video.
Thanks! 🙏
Just installed it and when I started the engine it shows that traction control is off and not turning on. I also found the car driving badly. Are these issues is going to get fixed after getting it tuned?
Those are totally unrelated issues and nothing around the intake should impact traction control. Verify nothing was accidently unhooked on the harness.
@@Projectfd Just figured out that my transmission is dying :( I'll be searching for a manual conversion kit.
@@zexy1384 Sorry to hear, but with a successful manual swap these cars really change, for the better 👍
sir my gear 1 to 2 jerk and 2 to 1 as well i have spend lot of dollars but it is still the same pls assist ❤❤
That sounds like an actual shift solenoid inside the trans, have they been checked?
Wondering why you would switch wheels. The retro one looks so much better.
Almost like different people like different things...
Donde la tiene en que estado esta
Where can i find complete servo?
There are a few vendors on Amazon that sell the upgraded corvette servo with all the gaskets I have zero affiliation with these guys but their piece worked with no issues: Phoenix Transmission Parts 4L60E 700R4 Corvette Servo Piston Kit for 2+4 Band FITS GM a.co/d/h8KyBDD
But why? I want the round steering wheel looks way better!
Thanks I hate the 2010 steering wheel looks cheap chrome fall off of the air bag cover
The grip is also better imo
Good vid. But why TF anyone want a Chevy Cruise steering wheel in their Camaro 😂
Did u 15:13 ever figure out the correct left center vent P/N? I plan on doing this on my 2020 f250 but have brake controller that is mounted higher. To wards 4wd switch
Great guide, worked like a charm.
Glad we could help! 👍
Would this cause a no shift at w.o.t and under normal driving it won't shit until around 4000 rpms and shift to 3rd from 4th when i nail it
Nice Shop, my friend is building one now the same size. He has a couple projects we will be filming for his UA-cam channel.
I skimmed comments and didn’t see my answer. I really like your shop and am wondering if you’d share the total cost please?
Dang Back into the servo I go due to loosing 4 gear entirely. I picked up an amazon corvette servo for my Silverado. When installing it I jammed it in with a pry bar and it went in far could that have damaged it making it slip?
Definitely doesn't sound correct, I'd remove it and check that everything was assembled right/there is no damage to the bore or servo.
Can you swap out the stock radio face to the fully loaded one with the bigger screen?
Yes, but it will need to be reprogrammed to the truck's VIN I believe. There are a few vendors out there that will source the radio/reprogram for you or just reprogram if you source your own unit.
Prefiero el 2010, el 2013 parece que manejas un Cruze o spark 😂
ahh i miss old youtube videos
Back when it was short and simple content
@@Projectfd life sure has changed a hell of a lot since then!
Lmao I got a kick out of it myself
What are rims ?
So where do you get a good servo from?
This is so helpful
I’m searching for the reverse of this 💀 2013 Steering wheel looks BORING compared to 2010 🔥
Are the two steering wheels the same depth? It looks like the newer wheel sits closer to the dash versus the 2010-2011 unit.
Hey, I'll answer that question for you; It's the same depth.
Do you know if it’s possible to swap my 10 to a 17 zl1 steering wheel ?
want to swap to a 1le sude flat bottom but they only come in manual and my 2010 is auto, will it still work? might just have to do zl1 i guess
You'll lose your auto paddles (if you had them), you'll also want to verify the buttons are the same. You can't add a wheel with stereo buttons to a non-stereo wheel car and have them work without a different clock spring and harness.
just did the swap, did you need a scan tool to remove service air bag light, or do u think the air bag is bad..
@@FOKESIMTHATDUDE recheck the clips into the airbag, you should not have a light/need to retune anything
where should I buy a servo for a 4L65e
Few months ago, when cold, 1-2 shifts firm and softens up until warmed up. I’ll get 2-3 flare as well cold or warm. 2-3 flare happens about 80% of the time. 2 weeks ago, while in OD with light pedal, truck starts to jerk like it’s slipping. It was doing it while driving on country hill roads. Filled trans fluid and it’s 1/4 above hot mark on dipstick. Added about close to half a quart. Hasn’t done OD jerking anymore but now 1-2 has soften up when cold. Will this servo fix it or does it need a rebuild? Has 157k miles.
I ditched my corvette for the superhold in my FULL build based around my Mason Smiths 4l79 billet input with every option I could find, cryo shafts included in that, extra wide Kevlar blah blah...still get random slips but ONLY at full throttle and only SOMETIMES. Really hate to pull it out as there's a 231 in its way lol...guesses? Oh- less than 6k on it, Hughes P. 28-3200..
Did you ever try these on your trailblazer ss??? What bolt pattern were they??
Did your console have a large connector that seemed to have nowhere to go?
Brother you have the best how to video’s explanations and visuals stay at it just subscribed going to spread your page around to all my friends
Hey appreciate that! We're hoping to get some new content going in the next few months!
:(
Just did this swap in my truck but I don’t know how to get the plugs to work being they’re different wires. Any idea?
For anyone interested the price for the console itself as of 19 dec 2022 is $1,699 not including any other parts whatsoever
That's so insane lol
Too funny how you describe the gathering here . After 30 videos and I slide in here , 2nd slips a little sometimes . I'll definitely look into this solution . Here's my issue , when I shift from 4 to 3 . My 3 gear does not catch up and slow it down . I slow down and go 3 to 2 , nothing just coasts . Same from 2 to 1 . It just coasts . I can rev the engine and accelerate , but it's not actually in gear . Beer cheers
Thanks for this guide. Just swapped mine out yesterday with no issues. 🙂
Glad we could help!
I am tryiing to get one of these built now.
That new wheel is horrible. I prefer the 2010 or the 2016s
is it worth trying to replace bought a used trans and it slips from 2-3 i have a spare trans i know is good with 12,000 miles on full rebuild just broke the ears in the pump. it pulls great in any gear just slips from 2-3
Yeah most likley that solenoid. Give it a go before trying to swap an entire trans back.
Thanks!!! If there is that much leakage through the servo that explains why when I electronically max out my line pressures I get proper shifts again. I'll change it.
I was almost there too with pumping up the pressure but decided to check the servo first
I could use some direction. I started this adventure of replacing my 2013 Camaro HUD. Everything was going well until I removed the steering wheel. I forgot to remove the wire harness for clock spring and pulled it apart (ribbon is hanging out) when I removed the steering wheel 😥. Do you know if there will be any issue if I just replace with a new spring unit?
Owch, sorry to hear. Yes I'd recommend replacing the clock spring, just make sure it's like for like (IE you had stereo controls/auto or manual) that way the harness will line up without repinning
2010 steering wheel looks MUCH better.
where do i buy the console at?
Thanx for the refresher! I took mine off my old GXP and the new one came with a RotoFab. I finally got around to swapping them out. I used C clip nut plates and 10mm bolts instead of push pins for the panels. Looks much better and easier to remove. I also have the update tube for the V1, the new units have it and the filter is easier to get to.
