It had apex seals. 😃 Only put 320 miles on it. I bought the car specifically for this project, I love the look/size/weight hated the engine. Rx7 body + LSx = perfect fit for me. ---

I do not believe in a god, but whoever gets a 13b over 200k must be a god. That said if you’re trying to start a rotarys arent unreliable arguement this isn’t the place. The car I bought was 100% stock other than exhaust and was on its 3rd engine. The chassis has 110k on it. This is more the norm than a rarity. If rotary’s were a good platform everyone would use them. Also there’s a reason the rx8 is slow as balls and not turbo’ed. ---

NA rotarys are actually quite reliable. the moment you turbo or super charge it. thats when you start chipping apex seals. ---

I agree with that, like I said there’s a reason the rx8 is NA.
