Help! Best Place for Rebuild Kit!?

Afternoon people,

I am in a bit of trouble with my 3rd gen rx-7. Unfortunately the engine has blown and I need a full rebuild kit. I have heard of places like pineapple, rotary aviation etc but can someone please please help me by pointing me to where would be the best place to buy a full rebuild kit??

Many Thanks!
Ciao

your best bet would be Pineapple or Atkins Rotary. from the research i have done when my first engine blew, these two are the best in the business.
Pineapple Racing heavy duty rebuild kit is only 1240.00
Pineapple link: http://www.pineappleracing.com/index...PROD&ProdID=44
a full rebuild kit for the 13bTT at Atkins is 1445.00
Atkins link: http://www.atkinsrotary.com/index.php?pag=5

Call Dan at AtkinsRotary.com and ask him for the forum discount and he should take care of you.

I have seen the atkins vs the ok pineapple rebuild kits.

I chose to go with pineapple, because of their water seals (far better quality to the touch, but have no experience with it in the motor)

Pineapple rebuild kits are like most everyone elses, a bunch of Mazda OEM pieces with a few major aftermarket upgrades.

RA is the cheapest kit of them all. I rebuilt my current motor with the RA kit.

Atkins Rotary is my choice. Also, they are more for the rotary community vs. others.

Thanks Eddie

Atkins makes some decent products, but in general I prefer Ray at Malloy Mazda, you can reach him at 888 533 3400. He owns an FD so speaks our lingo, and his prices are pretty damn good
