from my searching i think i have found the best kit/price at www.rotaryaviation.com . the only difference between there basic and master kit is corner seal, side seal, oil chain, and rotor oil seat set. now i know what the first three are but what is the rotor oil seat set? also is there any way to tell if i am going to need the kit that does or doesnt include these? like is there anyway for me to tell if they are warn out or need replacing? any info and insight woudl be greatly appreciated

 

?

 

depends on the milage and the symptoms of the engine before it died... or before u pulled it

 

well i am pretty sure that i chunked a rear apex seal. the mazda factory compresion tester will read zero on anyting undre 3kg/cm. so the rear came up zero and front had almost 4. also when i pulled the trailing plugs outta the rear it had clean marks where somehting had hit it. like the apex seal or something lol

 

A gasket/seal kit from Atkins, which you can commanly buy on ebay goes for $115.
The rotor seal kit goes for about $350-$450.

That is everything you need to replace ALL the engines seals and gaskets for the rebuild.

 

You won't really know what you'll need until you crack it open. If I were you and had "chunked a rear apex seal" I would be more worried about finding a rotor and housing. There's some pics floating around of some pretty trashed rotors. Maybe not, but you've got to get in there to see. You might not need side-seals but I would think you'd want new rotor oil seals, the rubber part anyway. There's a lot of measuring to do once it's all apart to see what's out of spec.
