CA Hello, from CA. (First time rotary owner)

My name is Quintin and I am from Sonoma County, California. I bought my first RX-7 in September of last year for $700, it is a 1988' GXL. It is a long term project that I have been working on. The body isn't in the best condition but there is no rust, just some old paint and a few small dents. It was a non running barn find when I acquired it. Since then I got it running only to find out it was running on one rotor. A few weeks ago I tore apart the motor in my garage (first time pulling and disassembling any engine). What I found was a busted rotor with two blown apex seals. As of right now I am a college student working as a valet on the weekends so I am working with a budget. I am passionate about this platform and I really want to get it back out on the road. I have rebuilt half of the motor with an Atkins complete rebuild kit but I am still in search of an S4 NA rotor. If anyone has any advice or knows where I can acquire a relatively cheap rotor so that I can take the next step in my project, it would be greatly appreciated. I am happy to be apart of the rotary community, and I am excited to see where this car takes me. (Pics are from the day I bought the car)
