Wellcome.
I also have 1 SA22 and if you want my advise stick to origanility.
I am not sure if the GS came originally with a 13B but if your original engine is a 12A then replace it with a 12A-rebuild not a 13B.
Upgrade to Dellorto 48 or even better Webber 48? Go for it...!

Thank you all for nice welcome. And for Cosmo Mike: I already put in the Dellorto 48 and RB system on it. I'm really like the power now, but I always can use more... so 13B just next thing I would like to do. I Also try to make car look different (the body of my car are getting lots rusty)... so this is my MOD project, and not to restore back to original 1983 Rx-7.

Cheers,
sfwu

OEM mechanic: ummm, out of warranty and needs fixing. I wonder how deep is this fella's pocket!

I'm glad I could do basic maintenance on my car; oil, filter, plugs etc.... otherwise it will be costly.

To all those looking for rotary mechanics...

There are a few options you can go with.

1. Ricks Rotary in Pleasanton. Very reputable shop.
2. Ivans Auto Palace in the Sunnyvale area...yet again, another reputable shop.
3. Rotary Evolution in Yuba City...who I take my car to, along with a good number of others from here. Ben (Karack on the boards) is one that pretty much all of us here in the bay will vouch for regarding his work. Awesome guy.
