This. Let's see some pictures of the process too.

I got it back together in August, but it only ran for a few months because I botched something and it was burning a lot of oil. I got a half-bridge from BDC and it ran great even with a base tune, but I never got to do a full pass because of heat issues (I will be installing a water/meth injection kit on the next motor). The engine parts have been sitting in my entertainment center for the past 7 months waiting until I have the time to finish out the motor like I want. I just bought a Miata, so I'm going kinda crazy with the RX-7. I've gutted the interior and am redoing the wiring harnesses. I'm also going to do my oiling system similar to 13B-RX3 - bypass all internal passages and run a remote filter/pressure regulator.
As for pictures, here's a video I put together with a time-lapse of me tearing down the motor:
