I just had one built and installed for 8g's. Everything new except for the rotors and shaft.


Also, I had all new coolant hoses installed, t-stat, oil level sensor, new belts and other various things done.

Well a reman is ~$2,200. Installation would be around $1,000. Depends on what exactly is done.

Last I knew, Mazdatrix builds with all new parts for around $5600 or something to that effect. Not cheap. Plus if you don't put it in yourself count on another grand and then all the miscelaneous hoses and gaskets that should be replaced, puts you close to the price of the car. I couldn't even think about something like that.

Luckily I had a warranty from Western General. They paid for about $5400 of it. I just had to come up with the rest. It was very very worth it though.

The reman is the way to go. The reman replaces parts that are wear and recycle the parts that don't wear. Plus you can't beet the price.

all rotary engines can be balanced.
