Wink planning phase for rebuild... need some inspiration

Hi guys!

In the near future i will to go to rebuild my engine!

I don't have blown anything yet, the engine stills runs good, makes power etc.

no problewms with heating, leaking or anything else!

i know have 168.000km ( ~105.000miles) on the block and afraid of a broken Apex seal witch also kill my housing!

So, if i have the block open, i also will do some mod's...

what do you think will be a good idea for preventive mods, power mods etc.?

so, here is my list:

rebuild kit from http://www.rotaryaviation.com/ with 2mm apex seals (are this apex seals and cooling o-rings really better then the stock mazda sealings?)

a mild streetport (some good links for a tutorial or anything? or is this really showed in the video from aviation?

mod on the throttlebody (some good links?)

installing Downpipe

wastegate porting

new isolation on the wiring, change broken wires etc.

Eccentric shaft thermo pellet bypass

new motor mountings from rx7.com

lighter flywheel (some tips?)

new clutch (also tips?)

some infos:

i don't want a horsepower monster...

i will reach MAXIMUM 300hp!

the 7en is a daily driver, so i cann't install the lightest flighwheel available

pls help

I can recommend some U.S. products, but I dunno if you can get it or afford it?
I know higgi has some good alternatives, which will make things cheaper for you.

Have you seen my website?
Particularly this page...
