i rushed the T56 Magnum install before the Project Car Challenge, so we didnt really get to see how well it worked on the street.

I’m sure it will be able to handle all the power that the 4 rotor won’t be producing.

Thank you LiquidIV! One of the few times I don’t mind sitting through a sponsor pitch. Might even check them out
Throw distance is accurately depicted on sticker.
The T56 magnum is such a good upgrade for any car. I can’t believe how easy it seems to be to adapt them with the adapter plates available as well
Holy shift. its a T-fif- T-six- its a 357 magnum that will blow away your stock trans. it will short throw your stock trans into the garbage. magnum. its got electrolytes

I just rebuilt the T56 in my LS 240SX drift/street car so it’s neat to see the differences; watching you drive I can tell the magnum trans is more notchy/deliberate on shifting and has a shorter throw than the regular 6-speed👍

Life hack: The fuel gauge in your instrument panel has a fuel pump symbol. Next to the symbol is a triangle pointer and the side that the pointer is on (left or right of the fuel pump) indicates what side your fuel door is on.

Awesome stuff Rob!
where's tha 4 rotors Rob 😈😂😂😂😂 man I'm so excited to see that on tha roads keep up tha good work love your videos man 😁😁
It's amazing how much more drivable it is with the new turbo setup. If you and/or your viewers go back and look at the 'What it's like to drive a 3 rotor RX7' video (something like that) you'll be surprised how different it is. The old setup had the worst turbo lag imaginable. I wonder how much power it would have had with all rotors running full song. Perhaps my 889 hp guess might have been closer. ;-) Thanks for the video, Rob. I always love seeing your RX-7 content!
Just ordered my CD00A and all the goods from collins adapter for mine. hope im as happy with it as you are this.
4:37 When the teacher tell you to go home but she forgot to give you homework
Rob I love your videos, keep up the good work
Hey, just a heads up for basically every car-- Your gas gauge usually has an arrow inside of it pointing to the side the gas door is on. If it doesn't have an arrow, it's the side the gas gauge is on.
U need to post the detail on how/where to buy the parts and estimate price in the discription
I was not ready for how small that first shift throw was lol. Gave me a little chuckle. What a cool car man
Cant wait to see this car properly dialed in at the project car challenge next year
3:07 the new fast and furious looks so good 😍😍
I love you Rob.
@robdahm Rotary for life!! I need to do more with first gen RX7 and rotary powered Miata. Keep posting these video's definitely motivation..👍

Got to hear it more than B is for Build. Thanks for the braaaps Rob.
What was your solution for the power plant frame and running this transmission?
looks like a Miata 6 speed with an IRP shifter, except it doesn't sound like its dry inside and about to explode.
Thinking about building a 4 rotor with a big turbo for my first ever car. Just got my license. Super excited.
Did you ever look into a MagnumXL? I'm using one for my LS swap in my BRZ. The shifter on the XL is further back than the T56 and lines up dead center to where the stock one used to be!
I think the word REFINED is a acceptable word too. Great video Rob. Can't wait to seen more.
That laugh at @4:37 is the genuine laugh from a kid who had the first taste of candy.
5:08 What all of us are gonna do when we see the 4 rotor run.
I love the sounds your car makes:) eargasmic...
Amazing sifts Rob totally worth it!! I had a car with sort shift it's crazy the difference and it feels better for sure ;-) Good job love it !!
WE NEED MORE VIDEOS LIKE DIS
I just want to see you walk that corvette...
Love that shift sequence slow down lol fast and the furious style
it's 3 in the morning here and i'm watching someone play with a meatstick totally worth it. btw, i totally understand your reaction at 5:08
Sounds so good!
Love the videos, car sounds mean man
The LS definitely isn't meant to go up around 8000+ rpm, so how's the t56 hold up at those kinds of rpms on the rotary?
Car sounds AMAZING!
Great videos!
I got that GTO T56.. notchy AF! 🤘
friggin rad man
Does it feel more stable and tame because the gears are longer? I know v8 cars always have longer geared transmission's because they don't rev as high as roataries or 4 cylinders (and they have more low-end torque). Also do you have a problem falling out of the power band between gears since the transmission is geared longer?
God dahm that exhaust note is quite amazing
Sounds angrier . Cheers for this vid
3:13 shit had me rolling lmao😂😂 perfect slow shifting.
The word you're thinking of Rob, is refined.
Tbh the T56 isn’t a bad trans. It can support up to 500-600 HP. And with the right short shifter 👌🏽. The magnum is just a crazy beast and with the right shirt shifter is an entirely different beast!
The best engine sound I ever heard and will ever hear, really
That annoying buzz in my left ear was not from the 4 rotor Rob!!
Forgot to mention that the t56 Magnum does not prevent STDs.

it most definitely does. if you meet a girl in a bar and you tell her about your new t56 transmission. you will not get lucky that night.
The way you described the stock transmission reminds me of my s2000 transmission
Longer videos Rob please!
explain to us how the batterys on the insight work, if it's worth to replace, or do like some people that just take it out
That click click in between gears is very mechanical and beautiful to watch. I'm curious to know how it will behave being thrown fast into a gear at the drag strip.
This is why the T-56 is one of the most popular aftermarket and stock performance transmissions ever built, able to handle whatever amount of power you throw at it. The Magnum model shouldn't shear the synchronizers like a stock T-56, that's a common complaint.
When are you going to provide a wide ranging update talking about the move to Cali, what’s going on with your business back in Detroit etc?
I can’t wait until everything in this car is sorted out. Interior trim etc all the little things
Don’t worry guys . A couple more years and the 4 rotor will be done. He should have just gotten Dan to do it for 200$ Bocks .
Man power looks so smooth compared to the old setup where it looked like it punched you in the chest when boost kicked in
Think imma throw a t56 magnum behind my 383 build going in my 77 maverick 💪🏽
Im considering a T56 swap on a 2jz build. Would it be a good thing or just get a r154 or a w58?
You can pick these transmissions up for $1500, and they come bolted to an aluminum-block LS motor, so if you need a swap... T56 holds a lot more power than most other OEM transmissions. I would love to see a T56 and K-swapped Miata. Makes for a heavier trans but a lighter engine, which shifts the weight distribution more rear-ward to get that extra honda power down.

No it'll give an e code. I have the same mtx-l as he does. But he may have the plus.
why are the peak HP numbers smaller now than before when you had the dodgy exhaust manifold and the restrictive turbine housing?
The diff (quick change) is a very good choice very easy to work on
i loved my t56/LS2 in my 06 gto. unfortunately totaled it, (dont drink and drive) never had a chance to get rid of that damn 1st to 4th thing so it was annoying driving it at low speeds. now im currently looking for a t56 to do my ls1 swap on my FD. (rotary peoples anger intensifies) i always liked the notchy shifts it feels so mechanical and direct and i never had a chance to install my gmm ripshifter so i still have it. hopefully it fits on a t56 fom the 99-02 pontiac-camaro that im looking for.
So a T56 Magnum without bell housing is about 8k new here or I can get used TR6060s for about 3k with a bell housing that just needs the bottom two holes drilled out. Is it worth the price difference or are they essentially the same box?
Where did you order your transmission from? I am looking to swap my junk mt82 transmission for something beefier for the kind of power I plan to make for my 18 5.0 mustang gt.
Rob your car is so much more mature now
Three rotors sound soooo good! Soo much better than a two rotor.
Have you clean up the 3 rotor yet? If not please do because this is a beautiful car. And is that a Porsche bucket in the drivers?
Hey Rob, what blow off valve are u using ??
That sounds so damn good
What did it take to make the Porsche seat work in your FD? Custom brackets, etc?
Is the one apex seal the only bug to be worked out in the power plant?
How much power will the t56 magnum handle to my ls turbo have 1000hp twin plate clutch
What does E2 mean on your air flow ratio I used to get now and then in my rb30det
Did you ever put power steering back into the car or did you leave it how it was? I remember the OG video on this car and you said it had no power steering
I wanna build my own rx7 and you have more rx7's than i will probably ever have 😅 man it Sounds so good
Thing sounds like a 2 cycle Ryobi string trimmer lol
Had a T56 on my Terminator cobra, the engine will blow before the transmission ever does. They're strong as shit!
you know on the dashboard where you gas gage is located, there is a tiny arrow which points either left or right and this lets you know which side the fuel filler door is located
