hay just for a confident's builder if you have lots and lots of experince with honda's and building them modding this truck like it is etc you should rebuild the engine for your self..
im no way a mechanic im just hobby guy and have learnt everything off the forum "almost everything rotary related".
I have built one 22re engine and seemed more complicated then my s4t2 motor build. plus i had someone to hold my hand on the toyota motor...lol but the rotary was easey all you need is guidence i have 3 diff 13b rebuild vids and just took notes on tech tricks.The hardest part was clearenceing the side seals.but hay lots of mesuring in a piston and alot more can go wrong.
i didnt read your whole thread as there seems to be some crap so sorry if i missed somthing..
and just post pics up on the forum of your truck since your putting a rota in it u wont get flamed..
mods should move this thread to the "Old School and Other Rotary" section should be more suited there..
cheers

yeah if everythings in good shape ..
but u never know for sure i would tear it down before u buy parts..
i got a s4swap for 800 but when i tore it down everything was toast only thing i used was the front plate,eshaft and few other things. i got all my low mile jdm parts from japan2la good guy...
in the end what was a 800 swap iv spent bout 4-5grand but all the small things add up plus i brought alota new stuff like my housings were like 600 or so cant remember lol.. but it will be a strong motor and will be seing over 350hp with a turbo and related stuff..
all the tools u need are basic. i got my messuring tools from harbor freight.. get a rebuild vid best 20 ull spend ..
since your not going for crazy hp the build should be easey simple.
good luck .

well i finally got around to a compression test..
the gauge i used we put together at work, and im pretty sure the gauge is bad.
the car turned over no problems and sounded strong, but nothing showed on the gauge...
im going to just go buy a compression tester and then give it another shot, but i think everything is kosher...

engine is mounted but there are a few little problems...
the engine sits crooked on the mounts that i ordered so i will have to either make new mounts or cut up the mounts i bought.
then its all about running wiring and getting the driveline welded up and balanced and then mount my steering and my pedals and some fuel lines and start this baby up..

Piston testers work just watch the bumps. It's rare for both rotors to let go at the same time. There should be three even bumps. While one blown seal will give one good bump (how do you know from three?), You should see the difference on the other rotor. No bumps, all seals are gone.
Look for one with the schrader valve for releasing the pressure. If you hold the valve, three even bumps. if you don't, you should still be able to see it pump up to max pressure.

ok engine is solidly mounted now.
got rhd steering box from a mazda bravo mounted.
waiting on my custom turbo mani to be tig welded up then just get the wiring figured out and the fans and all that jazz, but it hopefully will be running by winter.
thanks for the help everyone and i will post up some pics also of the build...

any suggestions on a style of intercooler?
i have been looking at the godspeed v intercoolers for a front mount. i will be running fd upper and lower intakes on the fc engine and also electric fans. just seeing if anyone had any suggestions. i dont think i will have a problem fitting a fmic as there is a lot of room under the hood now..
