Just knowing the right people i guess. We have a few contacts in a few places where rotaries are very popular so finding stuff is fairly easy. But not always cheap.. lol

Thanks!! Repu has actually more miles on the body, and about 50k on the rebuilt engine. So forgive me for the wrong info on it. Some deff drove this car with care though.
Fuel pump went out on it, got a newer electric gonna install tomorrow.
Gonna get a single 2.5in exhaust and a RB rotor shape muffler, new door rubber and a few other little things. Probably gonna keep this one as its in too good of shape

nice finds there diego. still in the market for another 3/808 so with ur contacts it would be interesting to see what u might can find. worst part bout it is the added cost going and getting it either by trailer or having it shipped.
