engine replacement??
 
I have owned a 3rd gen for about 1 year now and I am looking into picking up a 2nd gen as well. I found one that is reasonably priced (I think) but has bad compression in the rear rotor. What all am I going to have to do in order to fix it? What all is need in replacing the engine? Any other info in looking the car over would help out a lot.

Thanks
(yes I tried a search but I suck at searches :( )

Basicly your looking at getting a rebuilt motor for the car, which will run anywhere from $1700 and up, thats just for the motor. Will you be doing the rebuild yourself??? Are you familiar with Rebuilding a Rotary?

I am not going to rebuild it although I am going to do all the work aside from actually constructing the engine. Yes, I have had plenty of practice playing around with rotary engines so I know how difficult they can be but I am always up for a new challenge.
