Sam1647545489 Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Out of curiosity, what's the curb weight of an LSX/T56 FD? I am hoping to be under 2500# with mine once it is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie84 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 I am hoping to be under 2500# with mine once it is done. That's going to take some work to do... I assume it's going to be a racecar with no interior? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltboostin Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 more than what I want to admit to... More than 10k less than 20k... You should have called me-I could have built you a space shuttle for that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedrx7 Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 buzzing noise...is it followed by a yellow light by the coolant? could be the coolant buzzer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedrx7 Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 You could of done 2 ls1 swaps in that time goshhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 I would add a cut out for making people respect the ls1 authoritah! Your v8 has a fart can LOLOLOL. MY WRX is offended. Dig? I still can't get over the way a ls1 sounds threw that muffler. Imagine a honda pissed off bees in a coffee can. Ok got it in your head? Make them bee's into Gigantic fucking superwasps maybe even mothra. Now by no means does it sound like a honda ricer car. It just don't sound like what I think of when i think LS1. Looks like a damn fun toy I can't wait to see it at the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linc5.0 Posted May 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 nice work! post some pic's of the work you completed, I love seeing guys take on the work themself. Good job man. I didnt do the work myself. As for the buzzers...yes its the coolant buzzer and the exhaust temp buzzer...they wont stop.lol. As for the exhaust, i think it sounds mean as hell and I love it. Brian....if I change my mind ill let you know. Either way, Ill give you my cost on mulch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelloman4571647545499 Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 If your working on the car yourself there is a HOW TO on the RX7 board that tells you how to get rid of all those buzzers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedrx7 Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Brown wire from behind the gauge cluster in the dash needs grounded. That will end the coolant buzzing. I didnt think the exhaust temp had a buzzer? just a light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 glad to hear that things are going forward Erik. June 20th is when we're planning on our next trip to Nelson and I'm hoping to put a more thorough shake down on the FD. Hopefully you can tag along. plus we need to have our rotary vs. piston showdown, so that can be the final portion I as well didn't think the exhaust overheat light had a buzzer associated with it but I could be wrong. The other buzzer could be that damn "shift" buzzer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbotrio Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 All said and done, I think the Auto-to-6sd Swap probably took as long or longer than the actual LS1 swap due to having to wait on parts from Mazda all the time. Nothing was in stock and we would wait 3-5 days only to find that half the time they didn't send the part(s) we ordered in the first place. GM LSx parts were always in stock so no hold-ups on that end at all. Buzzing issues were only a temporary thing (All fixed now) so down to a couple little things and she is ready to roll. I will take a few pics today and maybe a quick vid as well. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
