question for anyone who has built a motor
 

im about to jump into a first time rebuild .. my tII coolant seals need to be replaced.. so i would like to know what rebuild dvd should i buy to help me out.. for those who have been building these motors for a while, have you seen a dvd that you think would best help a first time rebuilder? anyone's help/info would be greatly appreciated!!! thanks in advance!!

Mazdatrix has a more updated video on this....
Rotary Aviation is the old school video everyone should watch at least once.....

Also the Atkin's dvd.

have u built many motors before? did you have experience in mechanics prior to the build or did you use these dvd's to guide you? thanks


im check that out .. also same question for you


also i heard and read that the rotaryaviation dvd by bruce turrentine "overhaul" is best .. is it? lol .. will these dvd's show you how to rebuild all motors? i got a tII so im focusing on that lol thanks people!

I have the atikins dvd, and it's good for tear down and rebuild. What it doesn't have is a section on used parts inspection. Pineapple racing has a number of online videos that are helpful in that regard. Never having actually done a rebuild, I don't know what else I might be missing though.

I found the Atkins video to be very helpful for my first build...I rebuilt a 90 na with no rebuilding experience and the video was a great reference...highly recommend!

ok im considering getting the atkins dvd for 86-89 .. any words or rating for the video by bruce turrentine?

Actually i'm in the middle of my 1st rebuild now and I got all the videos because you take away a little from each as they all have their own little tips and tricks. As far as mechanical experience all I can say is that I work on all my cars by my self as a hobbyist.

nice .. im afraid of getting into my first build lol .. i've never done any mechanical work but i got enough sense to get it done with the right help .. i'd like for my first build to go smooth(ish) and not blow up the first time i drive it lol

when i rebuilt mine i got the bruce turrentine video, it was great covered everything you want for a first time builder, teardown, cleaning, inspection, parts and assembly. It was a great tool and was very helpful throughout the process.

( i probably sound very biased, but i've only seen this video)

i think i found some of the links for you

I have this one and the Atkins DVD. I think the one above is more descriptive.

I've luckily not had to do a rebuild myself, yet. :)

barnett good looks .. i've did some research on here and most people said that was a better video

bunta.. i did the search to find the links..thank though .. i might end up buying all three.. idk .. might just get the RA dvd first .. peep that out .. then move on to the next ..

it would be nice if there was some jerz guys on here that would be willing to help a first timer become a true rotorhead .. and not just spend hella money to get one built/rebuilt lol

have you tried the east coast section of the forum? not that i have; but i think youre right, not too many NJ cats with wankel
