-Tuned with EFI live. HP Tuners also included in the sale.
-Grannys LS Motor and trans mounts
-LSX engine, Shortblock out of a 2002 WS6 Trans am. 70,000 miles on the motor when it was pulled, Ive put another 3-4000 on it, so I would say 75,000 Miles total, Conservatively The factory hone was still clearly visible when the heads were taken off, engine is in perfect health.
-Ported/Polished 5.3 Heads by E.T. performance (very expensive and nicely done, not a generic porting job. Dyno numbers back up their claims.)
-LSM Custom Spec'd cam, Have a cam sheet for the new owner
-Katech rod bolts.- Installed at 70,000 miles with the heads/cam
-JTR 1 7/8" Long tube headers with 3" collectors, ceramic coated black.

Interior
No cruise control or AC, everything else, including heater, lights, interior switches, ***** and buttons work just as they should. Center switch panel has switches for the ignition, fuel pump, electric fan, interior lights and an extra, all labeled. It also has the starter button, which is very satisfying to push. All switches and circuits are fused and relayed properly and tucked under the dash out of sight. The ECU for the engine is mounted and secure in the passenger side kick panel area. Manual steering rack works great, no problems with parking or at low speeds at all, and the steering feel is amazing. Most plastics and interior pieces are there and in good shape. The center dash area has a guage pod with the Autometer guages installed. Carpet is in good shape.

-Radio installed but not wired, speakers removed
-Autometer Oil Pressure/Oil Temp/Water temp/Boost/ guages
-AEM wideband AFR with digital guage
Exterior
For being a car built in 1987, its in FANTASIC shape. The chassis itself has ZERO rust. Probably thanks to the factory undercoating Mazda put on, But also in part to the fact its been garage kept and maintained religiously. The exterior was painted a few years ago, I would give the paint a 9/10. It has a couple knicks in it, but overall I doubt you will find an 87 in better condition. The underside has remains of the sticky undercoating in places but for the most part is clean and rust free. The subframes were taken out at the time of the swap and powdercoated black and the engine bay was painted black with POR, I swear by the stuff, its liquid powder coat.
-Repainted Sunrise Red 3 years ago, Very nice overall, was done by a professional body shop, (not macco) couple scratches and chips now, but not noticeable.
-AWR rear fenders, Blended in perfectly. Doesn't upset the factory body lines at all (IMO) and will fit 315's in the rear
-CCW Race Version classic wheels, 3 piece, 17x9's in front and 17x11.5" rear. Have multiple barrels (inners and outers) to make them different sizes if wanted. Centers powder coated black, outer lips repolished and new hardware installed 2 years ago.
-Kumho XS tires with less than 1000 miles, 245's front, 295's rear.
-Unknown lower front lip, fiberglass
-Auto latching hood pins
-New windshield 3 years ago
-Side mirrors painted black
Cons
-Speedometer doesn't work
-Radio isn't hooked up, no speakers
-Sunroof inoperable, could easily be fixed

Re: 460whp ls1 swapped rx7 near pittsburgh pa
well the dude gave me $100 for showing it to him and he wants couple days to consider it, he is afraid the car will be too much for him...
i guess he wanted a weekend fun car and possibly auto cross/track toy but thinks it might be beyond his skill level. which is probably an awesome compliment

Re: 460whp ls1 swapped rx7 near pittsburgh pa
Welcome to the world of Honda people... It's very annoying. Weed through 1,000s of BSers to find 1 actual buyer. Nice car though, good luck with sale!!!
