You can get a JDM TII motor off eBay for around $1200 most any time. These are good low-mileage engines and, I believe, the most cost-effective way to get an RX back on the road.

As an illustration, here're a couple:

here are a couple places that carry rotary engines. there are also alot of specialty places if you want something more than a reman. also you can check junkyards and the mazda recycler in northern california(not sure where you live)but that can be risky, you might come up with a blown motor.
