Is the Rotary Aviation rebuild video anyworse than the Atkins Rebuld video?

 

whats wrong with the atkins video? I was about to get it.

 

I believe the rotary aviation is a little cheaper? Isnt it like 30$ vs. 40$ for the atkins?

 

What's the diff. in the two? Besides $

 

There isnt any other difference. Both show the exact samething.

 

they both cost the same too, $29.95.

 

Rotary Aviation has cheaper shipping to Canada and they take paypal, that's why I wanted to know if the aviation one is shitty or something...

 

Both are produced by the same person, Bruce Turrentine. It is the same exact video.

 

Sweet, guess I'm going with the Avaition one.

 

are they worth the money? I should get one


rebuilding the AE in the spring

 

I want to see a sample of this video first!

 

Well, I'm ordering mine soon, maybe when I'm done I can ship it to you over in Alberta...

 

Where can you get these? I assume they go through step-by-step procedures to rebuild rotaries?

I would love to know then where they are available considering I'm in Australia.

 

They are the exact same video. They are well worth the money; they show you how to properly disassemble, clean, spec out, and re-assemble an engine.
It also has a section about engine mods (oil mod to Eshaft, mix+match housings, thermal pellet bypass, etc).
He goes over how to identify good used rotor housings and other very useful things.

The video doesn't really show you in much detail how to remove the engine from the car... they actually make a video that is all about how to get the motor in + out.

Buy the video. Its well worth the money.

Shady, www.atkinsrotary.com , email them and ask if they'll ship it to Australia.

 

They have another video that shows the removal and reinstall. I think it's by Bruce Turrentine as well.

 

Well, I ordered a rebuild video from Rotary Aviation and I also ordered the install gasket set. Now I wonder how much the other internal engine parts are going to cost. It's front rotor has 0 compression.

 

probably going to need a rotor and a housing.

Is the 10AE in your avatar your car? Mine's identical, but back rotor is dead! hehehe

well, mine has fenders and a bumper, but......

 

Probably about a grand from mazdatrix for a rotor + housing.

 

Yea, it's 1 of 2 of my rex's. The 10th AE's engine's fine, it was in a accident from the previous owner in Vancouver. I have a 90 N/A that I'm rebuilding. Both cars I paid $450 each(different owners though). I've got pics of both at, there's also pics of the 10th before I took the front end apart:

The 10th AE has frame damage. I'm fixing up the 90 and selling it to pay for the repairs of the 10th.

 

wowie... good deals! I got mine for a steal at $1500... just have to get it running

and I better be albe to find a rotor+housing for cheaper than a grand american, or I'll just buy a j-spec

 

Yea, $1000 usd I could get a rebuild at Rotary Motorsports. Terrh, I'll let you know when i get the video.

 

Ahh excellent - thank you CrazyDude

[EDIT]

Oops, forgot something

I assume these 2 are the ones that are the same?

----
Installation and Removal procedures for the 86-91 Turbo and Non-Turbo Rx7

and

Installation and Removal procedures for the 93-95 Turbo Rx7
----

What about the other one on the site?

----
Basic overhaul procedures. Tips and instructions for the beginning mechanic. For years 86-95 Rotary engines both Turbo and Non-turbo.
----

Or is that also the same?

Just wondering, cause if there's no real difference it doesn't bother me but I notice you guys saying the 2 are the same, just which 2 is it?

Thanks!

 

Excellent Video!

I am a rookie and with these videos.. That is quickly changing.. quickly..

 

Who has purchased either of these videos? Were you able to rebuild your engine just from the video(Does it give you enough know-how to do it)?

 

I am in the process of rebuilding my N/A
http://www.geocities.com/thefastn2fu...neteardown.htm
and I used the video to pull the engine and to take it apart..

I will let you know in 2 weeks if the video was enough to put it back together..
