    Rotary motor
    Hey guys, I have a Series 5 Fc rx7 with a 13b turbo motor, not long after I imported the car from japan the original motor blew and I had a new one built with 3mm seals all new housing, high compression rotors... all the good stuff.

    Any way my question in short is I fear my current motors life is near and end, I love the car to bits, but I don't want to have to fork out that much cash again for a new motor, so I'm wondering if anyone know a website were I might learn how to rebuild one of these funny little motors?

    Obviously if my current motor blows up and it stuffs the housings and such I'm up for new parts but id like to rebuild it before then :D

    One more very good place
    13B-FC (2nd gen RX-7) heavy duty internal seal & spring rebuild kit - 13BFC-RBK1

    Rotery's are easy to rebuild but expensive. Parts around $1000 to $1500 for parts easily.

    To add to that is there a service manual to help me rebuild it?
