I absolutely love Tajh’s car! I went with the hardcore t56 but it’s hard to ignore how smooth the DCT maintains power to the road. Love seeing the innovation.

You did the right thing. The DCT is hottt, but its moving the FD away from its roots. A sequential would be the ultimate trans but a T56 is the way I would go.

The dct work you guys have done is awesome 👍 one question, in the vid it looks like there's a bit of lag between the paddle pull and the actual gear shift. Is that something you are able to improve in the dct tune?

@HTGtuning

@@dawggpie there is delay on low load shifts but that's intentional, because if you're driving grandma style it means you're not in rush so why would box have to be in rush then 😅 but as soon as you step on it, that's instant :P

@@HTGtuning ah I see. Is that too improve smoothness of shifts? I was driving a Porsche pdk recently and even at low load the programming felt pretty instantaneous. Possibly slower than high load but still very low latency. Gave a great perception. I've peppered you guys about this before, but any chance you'll figure out how to interface with the e60 s85 oem ecu (mss85 I believe) canbus? I don't think anyone has done it yet but I think literally every v10 e60 smg owner would switch over to dct in a second. 😁

@@dawggpie We already have communication with s85 ECU done. And yes, it can be as quick on light load as on high load and still be smooth, but as Tajh mentioned - I did that tune in like half an hour via anydesk with laggy internet :P We will go further than that when time comes :D

One of the best TRC vids I've seen! The car, the atmosphere and the vibes are just right along with the music and the scenes! The owner is an absolute lad and he's such a nice dude, really loves his cars.

Wow that DCT makes such a huge difference... it seems incredibly well matched and tuned to behave as well as it does. Stark contrast to all the sequential boxes that you usually see in these super-tuner cars.

Rotary is probably the most fun engine to drive. Imo

this is by far your best feature! great interview, full back story of the car and great cinemaphotography. please make more of your features like this!

His face when the boost starts ramping in.. that feeling is priceless.. This video in a whole is amazing. Keep this shit coming. Good looking mazda!

For those that love cars, foreign and domestic, this is exactly what we want to see. Great work.

i met the owner of this car at the import revival and he is such a cool and humble guy. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

That car looks so good it’s crazy this is something a electric car can never give you

Man I love this rx7! I'm a manual guy all the way,but it's really hard to argue that a rotary mated to a dct isn't a beautiful thing....mad props what an exceptional example of a nice rx7

What an amazing build. Kudos Love the DCT conversion, I think of it as a modern interpretation of the rx7

Thank god it's still rotary. I always felt, when owners take the plunge & invest into a rotary, these cars become very hard to beat, vs the typical 2j & lsx swaps

Hell of a build. I saw him post a while back when he was figuring out the trans issue. This thing is a beast.

I feel lucky to have seen this car. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Sooooo happy one of these builds made it on the channel.

I got a mighty car mods vibe from the music and the way the car video “montage” was shot….awesome video I love those RX-7’s

Absolutely love the still shots in the cornfield! Never would've thought that badass Mazda would look so great with a country backdrop. Very well done to the owner of the car as well as the photographer/editor 👍

This is my favorite car you guys have covered to date. Bad ass build!

I just found my dream RX7! Don't you dare sell that car haha. Probably the coolest and cleanest setup I've seen online with how it looks, drives, and puts the power down. Really cool guy as well!!

Mad love for this FD!!!! Its like the dream build man!!! 20B with 900HP and a proper DCT Transmission...that's it!!!!! Rotary heaven!!!!

Super clean build! Love the color, to the wheels, headlights, and that engine bay? Beautiful!

You can really see how the DCT just keeps the car in the right rpm’s to continually build boost. I know Dahm loves his manuals but man this thing really puts it in perspective

I’ve seen that car! It was at a car show in tysons, Virginia. Blew my mind when I saw it and blew my mind again seeing the complete build

This look is exactly the look I envision doing too. Two thumbs up! Sick build my dude

Holy shit. That is one of my favorite builds I've seen in a long time. Amazing.

Serious congrats. Hell of an achievement with that beautiful hot rod. She’s nasty. Congrats again. That’s what it’s all about. Cars unite us. Never stop.

I’ll never forget the day I drove my brand new 1993 RX-7 R1 (RED) off the lot. Then I took it to a guy named Peter Farrell Supercars, and hooked it up. That was 28 years ago!

Beautiful build bro, this is exactly what I was trying to do with my FD. UNFORTUNATELY, all the internals got stole for my 20b. So my car has been sitting since 2008. But I'm gonna get it fixed someday.

Any rotary with a DC is devastating. First time I’ve seen a rotary with a production DC. Great stuff!

Wow, this is a CLEAN beast of a FD. Nice job Bro!!

rotaries are usually stick shifts or sequential, this is the 1st one I see running DCT... cannot deny that I like it, it's the best of both worlds, fresh AF

That is insane fast. Paddle shift is badass. Great job

Very beautifully shot cinematography. This rx7 is amazing. Ive noticed a lot of to come BMW DCT swaps...people been hinting this change.

Spicy as hell! Beautiful build and definitely unique with the DCT

Saw this last weekend in person in ocean city absolutely insane car! So clean.

Beautiful car. I really am liking these more production style car features!!

one of the coolest builds ive ever seen

Lovin the evolution of these cars. DCT in an RX7. so cool

Great part selection and execution on the build

I like this guy!! Crazy ideas create amazingly crazy results! Great work..
