Hey guys, I have a friend who is a dumbass (we all have one of them, I guess). Well he ended up getting an 87-88 N/A FC in which he managed to blow the engine



I gave him the options:

Rebuilt it (I'll do it),

buy a rebuilt (from the 10+ places local or on the net),

buy a used engine (junkyard or somewhere else (I dunno),

V8 conversion.



He wants a used engine, so he will go by an RX7 shop asking around if they have one.



So, me being the nice guy I am, offered to help he out doing the install, etc.

But I really don't know where I can get a used engine other than the famous "J-Specs with ~30k miles" which will require other parts to make it run correctly.

All the junkyards around here don't have any rotary engines, so I am asking if anyone knows of any other places that might carry an N/A S4 13B.

u wont get an s5, if they ever do get into the junkyard they're stripped down to nothing in a day or two.
