Everyone has their own preferences but Atkinsrotary.com is a great place for all rebuild parts. You can buy a full rebuild kit or you can buy individual parts. They have 3mm apex seals

3mm Apex seals wont fit stock rotors. Get stock apex seals from mazda. Rx7 world has stock parts and so does Mazdatrix also Atkinsrotary is a good parts supplier.

I personally like hurley apex seals.. any one else have experience with those? also.. those goopy seals are supposed to be indestructible and not harmful to your rotors.. thats what them guys at sevenstock were telling me.. but theyre like 1100 a set :/

No.. you have to send in the rotors to a machine shop who knows how to do it and have them Mill out the apex seal groove to 3mm
