Hey I pulled of this hose:



It was blocked off at one end with a bolt and connected here:



What the hell is it?

 

hey let me know if you need a place to put a site up....

or I could just add it to mine... either way

BTW that is for the stock CAT

 

Should i Make a plate for it or can i just leave it open?

 

k2rd should have an individual bop for it, if not just get one from Jason...

 

Alright this sucks. Got everything back together went for a test drive, drove to the end of the road slow going through the gears. Then on the way back i opened it up a liltle and the wedge coller came off the throw out bearing. so i got it home in first gear, hooked it back up and when i was bleading the clutch line it pulled entirly out of the pressure plate. so now i gotta tear it all apart and try it fix it, probly have to order a replacement wedge coller and snap ring.

Also have a hesitation at 3000 RPM and rough idle if i dont have either the fan or AC running, what could be causing this?

 

Make sure you don't have a vacuum leak somewhere. And check all your ground connections.

 

I looked at it last night after i left that post, the upper cat has a hole in the weld, Also the wireing for the SAFC is pretty bad, whoever installed it didnt use the right connections, Used the Blue T-taps on wire that are way too thin for it so im gessing i got a few bad/loose connections.

I also need a new wedge collar and wire ring for an ACT xtream pressure plate, the place i purchased it from told me it was the same as the factory one. I dont have anything to compare it too, the guy i talked to didnt sound 100% sure so can any one varify that?

I must have damaged the one on there now when i put the transmission on, thats all i can think of.

 

Yeah that wedge color can be a bitch

 

Got everything done(except the 1-2 switch) Runs and drives great. Well worth the time and money. Not really that hard to do.

 

Can the wire harnesses from a 93 auto be put into a 93 manual. I had a front end collision and some of the connectors are destroyed. Since I had already had problems with other things not working, I considered switching out all the harness around the car. But are they compatible

 

no not at all, mainly under the daash... i mean you could do it, but it is really worth the money your saving?

 

Just looked at the harness around the engine bay-your right, it goes from under the dash driver's side through the fire wall, all the way around the front of the car to the passenge side fire wall and back under the dash. Am I asking for trouble to remove the connectors I need from the auto harness and replace the broken ones on the manual harness---or should I simply just buy a complete harness from a manual RX7..

 

Wow, there are a lot of entries on this topic. I'm thinking about doing the swap, and I would want to do it myself but I'm not sure if I can. I have a Taurus SHO right now; I bought it totalled and replaced almost every module, plus intake manifold gaskets. Do you think I would be able to do it? Also, as there is a surplus of entries on this, would someone please send me a link or an email with pictures for swapping them? Thanks. Email to n2soccer21@hotmail.com

Is it possible to run a T2 transmission in the FD. I have an auto and I am aquiring parts to do the 5 speed swap. I have a T2 Tranny thats why I am asking. Or do I have to use the FD 5 speed Tranny?

Thanks for the help!

 

Im almost 100% positive you need the FD tranny...

**** i think i am 100% positive...

Anyway search my past posts on this subject, and Cover8. Man Its been years since I have done this conversion... And its still running fine, granted everything about the car is changed now. Without looking at the VIN, you can't tell it was an auto, all harnesses and everything else associated was changed.

If you still have questions after reading all my past threads PM me.

 

Unless you have a T2 rear plate, T2 starter, T2 mounts (which require welding onto the body), removal of the PPF and suitable replacement bracings... short answer, no... long answer, no.

does any 1 have any spare connectors from the auto shifter? I'm looking for the "selector illumination light", H1-07 connector. Refer to wiring diagram I-2. THat would help me out immensley!

 

I did the swap on a 1992 FD.....again. Sort of.....The origional swap was just the tranny....the second swap was engine and tranny. Not fun. The manual engine harness does not fit the auto front or dash harness. I ended up swapping out a 1992 man dash harnes. I still had to rewire the X-15 (i think that was the one...big and blue) connecter. There are no wiring diagrams for the 1992 JDM that I can read, so I had to hard wire the starter to a button. (Now I have a push button start....I hate it.) I am still having trouble getting the nuetral and clutch switches to work. (PFC showes allways off) Looking back I would rather have spent $999,999,999,999.99 to have someone else do it all. Oh...I still need a tune.

I'm buying an Evo

 

Do I need the " Power Plant Frame "(PPF) from a Manual to do this conversion?

 

officially, no, but my auto ppf did not fit and i had to source a manual one.

 

Reviving this thread, im going the swap soon. I just bought this tranny off a nice guy on the board in austin,tx. And its missing a sensor or a switch Im not quite sure which one it is.. can anyone tell me exactly?

Here's the picture:

 

bump...everyone dead?

 

Neutral Switch

 

You think so? I was thinking backup light switch.

 

dont mean to re bring this back from the dead but iam in the process of the swap and I think ive gotten it all figured out except for the cruise control part. It says to cut the blue/white wire @ pin G on the Cruise control ECU connector for the cruse control to work but I have no idea where this connector is. Can anyone tell me which one it is?
