So I think I have decided to sell my baby, really looking ahead at some real estate deals, and need to free up some capital. This car gets driven maybe 3k miles a year, and it sits in a storage unit since I don't have a garage at home. Would be much better enjoyed by someone else who will actually use it to its full potential. I bought the car with the swap already done, but have rebuilt the motor twice, and changed just about everything cosmetically. Chassis has roughly 115k, motor 1800, and tranny around 60k.
This isn’t a typical swap. Swap was done from a whole 2001 Camaro parts car. He basically took the best of the two cars to make one. This car uses the Camaro body control module (for keyless entry/alarm functions), 4 channel ABS/traction control, plastic fuel tank/internally regulated fuel pump, and instrument cluster. Advantages described below.
 
4 channel ABS/traction control: Car uses the Bosch 5.3 ABS from the F-body. The ABS on the RX7 is an older three channel system and was starting to leak. The 4 channel ABS can work the rear wheels independently and is also necessary for the traction control. When driving the car with the FD ABS disabled and the front brakes would lock up almost instantly so maintaining ABS for him was a necessity. Not to mention the F-Body pump units are plentiful and can be found cheap. Traction control works well and uses three methods of power reduction when slip is sensed: ignition timing is pulled, if this doesn’t work the throttle starts closing, and finally if those didn’t work it will apply brake force to the slipping wheel/wheels. It can be turned off by a button press, but I can count on one hand the number of times I turned it off. I have found as long as you work with it, it works very well and will still allow the rear to get a little loose. This required all new brake tubing including an extra line run to the rear axle. All the stock brake hoses were retained as well as the Mazda ABS wheel sensors.
 
F-body gas tank: This replaces the steel FD steel tank, is plastic and will not rust. Most importantly this allowed him to run a dual outlet exhaust to both sides of the car, which is essentially impossible with a stock FD tank. This permitted him to modify and use the SLP dual-dual Loudmouth stainless steel catback that came on the parts car. The F-body tank also uses an internally regulated fuel pump so you don’t need the vette external regulated fuel filter. The F-body EVAP system is also used and fully functional. This required the FD spare tire well to be removed, so there is no place to put a spare. 

 F-body body control module: This car now has the camaro’s keyless entry. So the F-body remote is used which includes a trunk release button, he added a solenoid in the trunk so that this function would work. The dome lights, keyless and alarm functions work just like in an F-body.
 
F-body instrument cluster: Running the F-body gas tank and ABS sort of made this a necessity, for gauges and indication lights. He did not use the camaro cluster because the firebird cluster has amber lights so he installed a firebird cluster instead. This eliminates the need for the Dakota Digital speedo correction box, and the speedometer can be adjusted for different tire diameter/gears by a program like HP Tuners. The FD cluster hood was reworked with abs plastic, not fiberglass as he was concerned about fiberglass cracking and separating in the future. All the gauges and warning/indicator lights work just as they would in an F-body. Since he knew he had to rework the instrument cluster he was able to move the steering column up about 1 inch to make more room for knees, now there is a bit more space. Everything works perfectly together, you will really start to appreciate the functionality of all the F-body equipment installed.
 
I Just had it sprayed Viper Red, it really made the original red seem muted and dull. The paint is excellent, with no orange peel anywhere, its smooth as glass and looks stunning. Engine bay and jambs were not sprayed. 

The motor was fully built by Dave at Next Level Performance, this shop has been featured in magazines and has cars shipped to them from all over the US. Its got a mild cam, very streetable, and a set of z06 heads ported by Champion Race heads. Forged Pistons with offet pins for quieter operation. I have the full specs sheet on the engine build available. Accusump 3QT with a manual valve, JTR Headers, Custom Dual Exhaust, Custom CAI, Recaro pole Position SPG Seats (fixed mounted) NRG Wheel, and quick release hub, Diamond Clutch, 18x10 & 18x11 CCW Classics fully swissed and full polished These are about 2 months old, and get blown off after every wash with pressurized air to avoid water spots. 285/35 R and 265/35 F. Hankook Ventus RS-3. JDM Front lip, Shine Auto Rear Wing, RE Amimaya rep Side Skirts, and Rear Valances, Great stereo with 4 channel amp, and components, with 6x9's in custom enclosure in the rear. CD Player has Bluetooth and also an auxiliary input.  All new carpet, interior was originally tan, and has been proffesionally dyed and looks great. BC Racing coilovers with standard 8/6 spring rates, car drives great on the street. Rolled fenders F&R. New Poly bushings throughout entire car. Seibon CF hood, Granny's subframe will not allow for stock hood. HID's high and low beams. New starter and alternator, all 4 wheel bearings have been replaced less than 1500 miles ago. Stop Tech Big Brake kit, pads are like new. Hurst modified short shifter, which now has the 8 ball style shift knob, also have original leather Hurst knob pictured. Car dyno'd 392/388 and is very quick. I ran a 11.9@120 on worn out 255 drag radials. I'm sure there is much more I am forgetting, so please feel free to ask.
Issues with car: Engine bay and jambs were not painted, voltage reads a little low on gauge, but on a real voltmeter its perfect 13.7v. The rear end whines between 60-70mph, it has done this since I bought the car 1.5 years ago, and I do not know the cause. It has never gotten any worse, and is silent in any other mph range. Thats it. A very short list. I dont want anything in trade, and I'm not parting it out.

I have a CD which contains build photos and all wiring diagrams used in this build, including the systems of Traction Control, ABS, and BCM wiring. This is no hack build, all wiring is soldered, and uses factory connections whenever possible.


I have a lot of pics of the car, high resolution listed in this album. Most are before the side skirts just FYI. Click each pic to open it, and then click it again and it will open full screen high resolution. http://www.southeast-performance.com/gallery/album63

Mazda announces live-streaming vehicle intro on Xbox

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

In April, Mazda introduced a marketing campaign titled "Game Changers" to showcase how certain people have made significant impacts in their respective sports, and now it's the Japanese automaker that is changing the game by creating an innovative way to launch a new product. Mazda is teaming up with Xbox to offer a first-of-its-kind live-streaming global debut of a new product. Mazda didn't say which model will be debuted, but our guess is that it will be the next-generation Mazda3.
The actual reveal will take place at 9 pm on June 26 during a live concert from the band Metric in New York City, but there will be other live events preceding the concert in Melbourne, St. Petersburg, Istanbul and London. Mazda will be promoting the event on social media using the hashtag #GameChanger, and there is also a contest on Xbox where one winner will receive $2,500 to attend a music event of their choice. Scroll down for the full details of the contest and vehicle debut event.

Forza Horizon G-Shock Car Pack brings Nissan IDx, Subaru Brat [w/video]

Tue, Jan 6 2015

With winter's icy grip around much of the nation, now may be the perfect time to sit inside at night and enjoy some video games. The latest six-car G-Shock pack for Forza Horizon 2 on the Xbox One is now here, and it gives players a very eclectic group of vehicles to race around the game's open world. This month's group of vehicles spans the decades ranging from 2015 back to 1953. The newest and only concept of the group is the 2015 Nissan IDX Nismo. Since the production chances for this retro coupe look increasingly slim, this game might be your only chance to get behind the concept's wheel. However, if you prefer driving something a bit more classic and Italian, the 1953 Ferrari 500 Mondial is available. To add one more flavor of performance, there is the 2010 Mazda Mazdasped 3 hot hatch, which is also this month's free car for download. In addition to three takes on the sports car, Turn 10 is also offering a trio of off-roaders. The quirkiest among them is the 1980 Subaru Brat GL, which features two jump seats in the back to avoid the dreaded chicken tax. If you prefer something more boxy and American, then the 1975 Ford Bronco is sure to please. Finally, for some real power to get through the mud, there's the 2013 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor as tuned by Shelby with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 making 575 horsepower. As usual, the whole pack costs players $5 to download, or it's free as part of the season pass. Scroll down for a brief video showing all of these virtual rides off and read the press release about them from Turn 10 Studios. This content is hosted by a third party.

Are you ready to hit the roads of "Forza Horizon 2" for Xbox One in some new rides? You better be because the G-Shock Car Pack is lighting up the new year with some amazing vehicles. Leading off the pack is a "Forza" First: the 2015 Nissan IDx NISMO is making its videogame debut in "Forza Horizon 2." The IDx prototype harkens back to Nissan's storied automotive history, with its compact size and aggressive appearance, and looks to the future with some serious under-the-hood performance. Take a spin in this gem, and you will be startled by its performance and charmed by its presence. The remaining cars of the pack also have "Horizon Festival" written all over them.

Infiniti QX60 AWD vs. Mazda CX-9 Signature

Fri, Jun 16 2017

In certain ZIP codes around Dallas, Chevy's Suburban remains the Official SUV of Texas, but Infiniti's QX60 could be the Official Crossover. The Pathfinder-based three-row is everywhere. And while its popularity is based on transporting kids and their stuff, the QX60 is a more urban Suburban. Mazda's CX-9 is not as ubiquitous as the QX60 in McMansion driveways, but it has been making inroads into the near-luxury segment with its near-luxury spec. The CX-9's second generation has obviously upscale intent, in the sheetmetal and throughout the top-line Signature interior. And the prices of these two cars are surprisingly close. INFINITI QX60 AWD: The sheetmetal differentiating Infiniti's QX60 from its volume-oriented Nissan donor is attractive. The changes are subtle, and in profile the Pathfinder and Infiniti are almost identical, but the eye is drawn to the differences in the grille and D-pillar. The Infiniti has a luxury vibe with a more athletic stance. The QX60's interior surfaces seem upscale, but if you want wood it will cost you. In "building our own" and opting for graphite leather with maple trim, the wood requires another $12,000(!) of mandatory packages, including Infiniti's Premium and Premium Plus packages ($1,800 and $2,900, respectively) and $7,300 of Deluxe Tech. So, wood? We wouldn't. But if you do, know the QX60 won't match the larger QX80 in presence or passion, but it is certainly something beyond a rebadged Pathfinder. For you and your passengers, there is 156 cubic feet of interior room; with the second and third rows folded, you can accommodate 76 cubic feet of cargo. Like in most crossovers, that third row is best used by young kids, but taking six adults to lunch won't require too much gymnastics – or chiropractics. On the road, the QX60 is known more for comfort than composure; this isn't an old Buick, but neither is it a BMW. Nissan's 3.5 liter V6 produces generous power (295 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque), but it's transmitted to either the front wheels or all wheels via a CVT (continuously variable transmission). Nissan has tried to mitigate the quirkiness, but it's a CVT all the same. At a well-equipped base of $44,000, we like the QX60. But start adding options, and you can approach $60,000, which is real money even in the better ZIP codes. MAZDA CX-9 SIGNATURE: This, ladies and gentlemen, is dramatic. Mazda has absolutely nailed it. Using Mazda's KODO design language on a large platform could have gone wrong.
