Pte 6466 & AWD conversion

[Nitr0EngiE]

buying axles from the drive shaft shop or whomever and then shipping them to greece is likely more expensive and a headache so I can see him making axles as a better option so please think about the entire picture.

[Jarods7920]

So are the rear axles from the states made by driveshaft shop or are they custom parts made on your side of the pond?

They look to be DSS based on the pictures and parts used on them.


Questions i have are... what do you percieve the advantage to be for the diffcuff? I have seen things used on the inside of the trans, but never the outside of a case like you have done. So, if you dont mind i would love some insight into your thoughts. Seems like a good idea.

Do you have any pictures of how you modified the CX-7 lateral arms? I had some one once tell me what i did was incorrect and would not work, so curious to see if you did somethign similar to what i did or went a different route.

Lastly, ABS does yours work in the rear? If so what did you do to get it to work? I have kicked around various ideas for it, but never settled on anything.

Lets take it from the begining .The 2 rear axles are from driveshaft shop the rear left(driver side)is the same length as speed6 has the rear right(pass side)is custom order ,i have also changed the abs ring and put it at the same place the cx7 has it.If i buy oem axles for speed6 from my country is much expensive than buy the upgraded one`s from DSS .


As for the rear subframe . I start by put all the cx7 rear subframe as it is to see and mesure what it needs cut.So i cut the cx7 lower arms just near the bumb stops and shortened them and weld the again.Then i make the toe arms adjustable so that they can fit at whatever length i need.After, i finished with those i take camber arms from the ms3 and cut them and weld them(i have also mesure them so that they will fit correct).


As for the ABS i just weired the abs cables from the cx7 system (non magnetic) to the speed3 cables. I get no ABS faults.I also try yesterday that it is raining here and push the brake for instant stop from 60mph to 0 and the abs works normal(i`m not sure 100% if at the rear wheels really have abs) but since i try it and seems to work plus i have no fault lights i assume it is fine.

Finnaly my thought about the handcuf on the transfercase was that when you launch the car all the transmison parts streched so i try by some way to reduce that strech .
Have in mind that i have also put upgraded bearing cups in it and of course i have replaced all the bolts that tightens it with biger arp`s ..

[Jarods7920]

You wouldnt happen to have any picture of the the ABS rings and such that you used would you or pictures of the axles and how you installed the rings?

[RE-ACTIONENGSPEED3]

i do not have but next time i will raise the car i will take some photos to send you...

[Jarods7920]

That would be fantastic! I was not aware that both systems could play together like that...rings and magnetic.

[SpencerC]

Most impressive. Wow.

[Brandon@corksport]

Beyond words!

[Filthylookalike]

Every Mazda owner in Greece is proud because of you ! Keep it up !

[stanley0910]

Sick build... AWD Speed 3 with all the built goodies and a 6466, definitely looking forward to seeing some passes in the 1/4

@RE-ACTIONENGSPEED3; Μπράβο φίλε μου πολύ ωραίο

[daytonabluez05]

subbed for progress, looks awesome

[RE-ACTIONENGSPEED3]

This weekend we have some body work done.Added a fiberglass rear trunk door with the oem windsield.Weight reduction for 9.2kg((20.2 pounds).Next comes some modification to the front bumper.

[Jtaylor]

Can't wait to see you make a pass in this thing! With thoughts of eventually revving till 8500, any concerns with the oil pump being able to hold oil pressure at those speeds?

[Swinger13]

That trunk looks exactly like OEM well done

[taf0422]

This is one impressive build. Definitely keep up the good work and keep us updated

I think(hope) it will be fine...

[JgamB]

10 days and no updates. I have a thirst for progress greater than a wanking teen scouring the web for Kate Upton nudes.

[POE]

I want to hear this beast bark on a green light. We need an action video.

[RE-ACTIONENGSPEED3]

Today I changed my oil i have already make 450mp/h...Everything looks fine, no leaks....
I also have the abs light turned on and i was anxius to see what was wrong , so luckily the front right sensor(unhooked from his positionn) was touching the inner side of my tyre.So we cut it at the place it is damged and re wired it again and everything works just fine.I have also started to give some boost about 14psi and it looks very alive...

I will make another 200mp/h then change to High performance oil (Red Line 10-40) and start to pushing it hard...


I also find some time and weight my car, 3200lbs with full interior and oem wheels...

[SyntheticAtmosphere]

You sir have ascended to car god! I will use this thread to prove to people what this platform can do!

[RE-ACTIONENGSPEED3]

Make some more miles today, about 120mp/h ,i have started to give some boost ...

[WA_MS6]

This is beautiful. You sir, are winning more than you think!

[Shwa]

And there's a dude who actually started a thread about being bored with his speed, when this is going on. Awd monster 3 and Enki deleting his IC are more than enough to keep me entertained, albeit vicariously.
Speed on you magnificent man, we're all behind you for support and reach around.

[Mastertrixter]

Oh you beautiful fucking bastArd you!!!!!

I cannot wait to seevideo of this beast ripping through the gears at full boost!

Not just Greece, in awe from Colorado....

[RE-ACTIONENGSPEED3]

More body work this week .I relocate the battery under the rear seats with a custom welded box , i also make some drils on the front bumber for more air to fmic and made a custom air box to drive the air to the oil cooler...

Enjoy...

[mituc]

Wait! So this build is the most extreme MS3/3MPS build ever done by my knowledge, right?

I can't not to remember Erich, Realgib, Lumperjack and possibly others who made it into the 700whp territory with a MS3, but I'm pretty sure this greek 3MPS will not make 6th gear burn-outs at 250Kmph.

[speed3 britz]

@maisonvi; you need ducting like this!

[ItsNox]

I haven't wanted a speed 3 until now. Just incredible. Thank you for doing it right, sir. I have a permanent chub now.

Well done

[Swinger13]

could be just my eyes and/or the pictures, but it looks like the battery box sitson the exhaust piping or into it?

all of your dash lighting and display panel are blue/white as well, nice

[mituc]

Not that nice for long night drives, but easier to see in every condition.

The exhaust comes about 2 inch on the side of the battery box.
