rx7 killer
just a new kit to start with why would you want to re use old parts, i wouldnt risk it, and having to open it again because of one seal you didnt replace...
atkinsrotary has a masterkit for $1120
pineapple racing also has one $1231
i cant find mazdatrix's kit but im sure you can find it, even though my engine was so to speak had recently been rebuild(had fresh coolant seals) had low compression i still went with new seals though just my opinion...but seems like im always to talking to a wall...

sorry for the delay, i lost my job, but got it back
heres some quick up dates. ALL the porting is done.
next plan.
Get the irons Resurfaced. thatll cost me like 160. which is good with me.
this week, im going to be focusing on the Chasis, adding the rear strut, replacing some bushings, cleaning the Engine bay and wiring....
thanks, im aiming for some time durring x-mas.
ALEX your stupid READ THINGS BEFORE you post hahaha 
Im not REUSING ANYTHING!,,, that defeats the purpose of the rebuild, the only reason i say i need a partial rebuild kit is because i ALREADY bought this stuff BRAND NEW!!
(i bought this stuff BRAND NEW, still in the packages, ill post pics later)
the oil control rings, sideseals w/ springs, tension bolt seals, front main seal..
i still need waterseal kit,solid corner seals and springs, oil control rubber seals(8) and springs(8),..... and i think a few more stuff..
thanks much appriciated, glad to see that i got your support..
and i dont if 400rwhp will be enough..... i might aim for bigger. like 450....
still doing my research...

Zero you are going to end up knowing all of the parts Numbers after the motor rebuild!!! BTW are you keeping tabs on what your rebuild is costing you. I'm interested to see how much of a difference it is between a 2nd gen single turbo and 3rd gen single turbo rebuild would be.

Why didn't you just buy a master kit from the start?
My N/A rebuild only costed 550$ for a kit + 50$ for side seals and solid corner seals. But I was lucky since I didn't need to replace any rotors or housings. But Sanrio paid for mostly everything :P
