Well I’m going to rebuild my Rx2 engine which is an s5 t2 block. I got the JDM block about 2 years ago and just got an Atkins full rebuild kit and 3 mm apex seals, new rotor bearings and a thermal pellet removal. Then I had to put the car on the back burner, because I didn’t have the money for it, so this time around I am going to do a better job. Here is a list of what is going to be done:



large street port

new housing

resurface the irons

clearance the rotors

rx8 e-shaft

hardened stationary gears

FD oil pump

high pressure oil regulator



So, the question is if I take the motor back apart, will I have to replace the combustion and water jacket seals even though I never even ran the engine, and is there any thing else I should do when I have it taken apart?



Its going to be fed by a gt 35 whit, a .82 ar, and a knock off jayteck intake with a 1000 cfm autonomics tb

Well, I got my seal question answered, but now I just need answers about my modifications, should there be any others? It doesn't have to be bullet proof but I want it to last. Much thanks in advance for your help.

throw in an Fd oil pressure regulator, its $23 new...
