just received and mounted the hydrolic bearing to the transmission and also received the new bigger SFI bellhousing. Enjoy the kit is coming along!!!!!!

 

Nice. My curiosity is killing me with respect to what what all these parts will cost the rest of us.

 

im not sure how much the complete kit will be but as soon as its completly done i could ask for final price.

 

here is the new bellhousing attached to the transmission. waiting for bolts to mount it to the engine.

 

 

What's the distance from:
The end of the bell housing to the shifter?
The end of the bell housing and the driveshaft output?

Thanks!

 

Now are you using the Stock Driveshaft or is it custom. The reason why I ask is because the T56 has multiple spots to locate the shifter?

 

The drive shaft need to be custom made, the stock one cant be used. As soon as i install the transmission i will send measurements to have the drive-shaft made, it can be order in steel, aluminum, carbon-fiber, cromoly.

 

Any updates? I am about to do a TR6060 conversion with quicktime bell, samberg diff and trans mount(modified). Great ratios in Australia from FG falcon similar to your GT500's. Just waiting for box to be blueprinted. Will post up my conversion once it starts and problems are encountered.

 

Good luck with the project!, i will be posting as soon i have more progress. working on fitting the bellhousing to fit the tunnel cover. looks very promising. stay tuned.

 

That is very nice, i really like the hydrolic bearing set up. Top notch...

 

Thank you, it was provided by one of the car sponsors Spec Clutches.

 

Looks great! This has my 3 rotor desire at a fever pitch!

 

x2 nice work man.
if it works out on the tranny i look foward to see some kit comming from you.

 

thank you it has been a long road but all worth it. Good luck with yours

 

I will keep you posted. Its coming along great.

 

Any updates ? I was about to upgrade to a supra tranny

 

im still working on finishing the project but while working on the project i moved, i had two beautiful girls and they have kept me extremely busy so i havent had a change to work on the car its sitting in a corner but things are looking up so hopefully soon will get back on working on it. i already got the bellhousing made, the clutch kit is already made to fit the rx7 and the t56 magnum, the aluminum low profile shifter extension was made so basically a big portion of the kit is made i just have to install it so i can take measurement to create the driveshaft and i think i be done i will keep you all posted. thank you for your patience.

 

the project has been on hold for a bit because i ran into a costly challenge. when i installed the t56 magnum the shifter points are moved forward 3 inches from the regular t56. So this created a challenge for me because now instead of having to find a extention that was 6 inches long and be able to fit it on the very limited space between transmission and chassis. i have look everywhere and the only option that i found was to create a custom made 6 inch relocation shifter which would cost me 1100+ and that has been my battle to pay or not to pay! that amount for a shifter. Recently i was talking to one of the companies that have been working with me on the project and we found a much better solution. I got in touch with the owner of Rockland Standard Gears the creators of the TRANZILLA T56 transmission and they were able to create a solution for the rx7 community. Since they build the full transmission from scratch with all Tremec brand new parts they can custom make it any way you want. from gears ratios, tail shafts, input shaft, ect. the sky is the limit. Another benefit is the fact that they upgrade all internals while building it and it raises the torque that it can handle up to 850 from the 700 stock magnum. In addition, oil system and other major upgrades are performed to have a much stronger BRAND new transmission with full warranty. they also use a longer tail shaft that will just locate the shifter exactly in the factory hole. i should be receiving mine shortly and will post pics when i have it installed. he also offers many additional upgrades to upgrade even further. They have many cars running over 2000hp on their transmission with no problems. Let me know if interested so we can maybe purchase several and get a lower price. In addition, the SFI bellhousing is already made and i will be completing the drive shaft and transmission mount ones i receive my transmission and install it. Thank you all for your patience it takes time to find the best solution for this jig saw puzzle.

 

yea that company is bad *** that tranny is sick

 

Amazing! Subbed

 

well it makes a perfect marriage rx7=bad *** and tranzilla=bad *** so its going to be a fun car. im probably going to take some pics and maybe make a video of it. So i open it for all of you to let me know what you all what to see.

 

I introduce you to the TRANZILLA RZ custom made as a bolt on t56 magnum upgrade for the rx7 community. It would mount with the Quicktime Bellhousing that I help develop with my friends at QuickTime bellhousings. Thank you all for your patience but it's more than worth the wait. This pics were taken right after being completed more to come of the build process!

 

I got so exited I forgot to give credit where credit is due! Thank you for our friends at RSGears (Rockland Standard Gears) for the beautiful work of art that they have provided for the rx7 community!

 

Its not on their web site, could you give info on how to look the transmission up
