PA buying rebuild kit

I'm in the market for 13bt rebuild kit, and wondering where you guys buy your rebuild kits. I was looking at atkins kits, but wanted to get more info on other ppls experience, price, and performance on either the same or different vendor.
thanks

How built is your engine? How much more do you have planned for it?

Make sure you do your research on the different types of Apex Seals offered by the different manufacturers / suppliers. I know a lot of people on here wouldn't suggest the Atkins seals - just be sure of what you want and what you're buying. Do a search on rebuild kits.

RA seals are the cheapest, but I hear bad things about them. Maybe they're why my last engine locked up...

As of right now is only going to be on a BNR stage 1 with a Bport. But I'm planning to put a gt35r/aspec-500r next yr. As of right now I'm looking at atkins and pineapple race kits. Has anyone used any of these kits. I know atkins make there own seals and pineapple uses mazda seal. But pineapple supply heavy duty water seals. And now I just found rotaryplanet has a rebuild kit pretty cheap but they have those RA seal(which i know nothing about). I really need help guys, this is expensive and my first time doing a rebuild.(i have the atkins video) Would like to hear what other ppl order and the success they had with them.
