Hey there, I'm a bit new to the whole rotary scene, Ive tried learning as much as I can online, but I've decided to jump in the deep end and buy my first rotor an 808 with a 13bpp 
From what the guy has told me, the engine history is a bit unknown as its been imported from Aussie, RX4 block, 51mm IDA, compression test is 95 psi on all 3 faces on both rotors and done about 5000kms in the 2 years hes owned it, Oil press 80-100, water temp 85'c.
Its also got unbreakable steel apex's in it and that something had been done to it to flow oil to the e shaft better?
Just wanting to know the most important things to check on it, and if its a smart idea buying a PP with not much known about it?
Thanks guys.
