Cool New Engine Parts?

I've been away from RX7s for a couple years. I recently saw new rotor housings available on one of the sites linked from this board. Has Mazda decided to get back into the rotary engine business? Is there a possibility of an affordable12A or 13B rebuild?? Wow.

New rotor housings have always been available from Mazda.

Welcome to the forum.

Really? I was under the impression that if you lost a seal and scored part of the engine that you were S.O.L. and would have to try to find a used good condition housing. I see the rebuild kits are still $6-800.

You can build a brand new 1974 engine with nothing but a credit card and a parts book
