Is the engine in a running car? Then yes you can check it. Otherwise it seems difficult. See forum FAQ and/or google for buyer's guides. You'd want to check coolant seals, compression and oil seals. Make sure you look up the proper way to check compression on a rotary (forum search, shop manual, etc.). That will tell you the condtion of the apex seals and side & corner seals. The buyer's guides mentioned should tell you how to check the coolant and oil seals. If any of these is bad it will take a $2k-$3k+ rebuild to fix.
Transmission and turbo: Check same as you would on any other car. A forum search/etc. may be more helpful than me here.
