Renesis housing = 13b housings??
At our last meet the dealership put out an Rx-8 for us to tinker with and I noticed that the rotor housing have the same exact "13B Mazda" stamping on it as all the FC engines I've ever seen.
Does this Renesis use the same housings as the older rotaries? I thought that they were side intake, side exhaust so did they block off the exhaust port?
Just curious, thought it was neat to see the 13B represent once again (although the Renesis is still 1.3l of displacement I didn't think they'd use the same code again on the housings .)

Good call the Placement of the seals are the same as the first gen housings... they changed over ont he second and third gen but Mazda swapped em back in the Renesis. The housings would be the perfect starting point for a custom intake/exhaust buildup.
Wonder who will be the first to use them in a custom pp race engine...
