The kits for around 500$ include all the external seals and the one from atkins has new springs too. The 160$ kit is only the rubber o rings. Get the 500$ one.

DUDE if you have to ask , then you need help . I'm not trying to clown on you , but you are better off to buy a rebuild from someone reliable. Contact Kevin Landers at rotory resurrection.

What the hell are you talking about? If you actually looked at my other threads, you would see that I have a pinhole in one of the coolant seals. I have 110 psi compression on all rotor faces, and the engine was rebuilt only 50-60k miles ago. IT DOES NOT NEED THE HARD PARTS. All I need is to replace to coolant seals. By posting a stupid reply like the one you posted, you look like you have no idea what you are talking about. How about you show a little knowledge and tell me what else you think I need. I can tell you for a FACT that I don't need any of the hard parts. The way I see it...I get the soft rebuild hit for $160, pull the engine with my own tools (which I have TONS of), take the block apart, replace the coolant seals, re-assemble, and put it back in the car. You wanna tell me what I'm missing?

That is about the most abnormal rebuild situation and relates absolutely in no way to what the original poster was saying... so why did you tell him he would only need to spend $160 on a rebuild?

And even though your rebuild is 50-60k you're not gonna get away with re-using gaskets... start adding those up.

LOL I'm really sorry bro. I guess just seeing your reply right after my post made me automatically assume it was for me. I apologize...just having a really stressful week.
