How much to do it yourself...? or
How much to have a specialist do it...?

I know that you can get fact remans for $1500 or so...maybe cheaper...

 

Did my turboii 87 motor about a year ago and it ran about 1200 buck give or take a hundred. The full rotor kit by itself ran around 800 bucks then about 250 for the gasket set and then mabe another hundred for stuff. Parts from Mazdatrix.com. Go to their site and price the rebuild kits. I'm sure it can be done somewhat cheaper but I do not know how. Thats the approx cost if the major parts are ok. If not rotor housings cost a bunch. See the Mazdatrix . com site. Do it yourself. Good Hobby. Satisfaction etc.

 

Go to www.atkinsrotary.com and check the prices on the rebuild kits. They have a few different levels to choose from, depending on how complete a rebuild you want to do.

 

Jspec Engines run about $1000 shipped to your door, but they ARE used. I just got one and its in great shape with very low miles. The blades on the turbo look almost brand new
