Apexi Seals
Hey whats up i am about 1 week away from getting my first Rx7 and i am very excited. I know that you can upgrade the apexi seals from 2mm to 3mm but i also heard u can replace it with a ceramic type of apexi seal that will hold up much better then the regular 3mm. Does anyone know where to get this seal and where to get a lighter rotor i have looked around and cannot find it anywhere. Thank you

You need to spend about 200 hours reading about rotaries and FDs, in particular. I suggest www.rotaryengineillustrated.com and the links in the newbie sticky.
BTW, it's "apex", not "apexi".

fart on a friends head!!!
carbon seal???? thats a nogo for turbocharged rotaries. the seal department all depends on what youre going for. oem seals seem to be a GREAT choice among builders nowadays. AFAIK, they have the GREATEST sealing properties.
