How long do they last?
I've just clocked up 300,000km on my 87 non-turbo.
How long does your average 13B last? I guess I must be up for a new engine soon, but so far so good... ::fingers crossed::

way to go! if properly maintained I personally think that rotary engines can go just as far if not farther than piston engine due to the lack of vibrations in them and the fact that they only have about 4main moving parts!
once again! Congrats!
P.S. and you certain it is the original engine in there?

The engine I'm running on m=now had about 170,000Mi on it when I pulled it and dropped it in my car. Runs great! If they're kept up, there's no reason these motors can't go well beyond 200K.
