I've made a decision and I'm gonna sell my Celica and go buy a rx7. First thing I'm going to do is rebuild the whole engine with needed upgrades to expand the lifespan of the engine.



Anyone got any clue on how much this might cost, along with hireing qualified personal to do the job?

every shop will charge differently most notable ones are:



Pineapple racing

JR's rotary performance

Atkins rotary specialists

Mazdatrix

KDR



and others i have not noted, but you can get more info from their websites and others here with personal expiriences

good decision

and in regards to your other thread, boost said 100k miles not kms

rotary resurection is another I've heard good things about, and he charges a lot less. His prices start at $1000.

Ah good good! For summer driving only that should last me a while.



Hmm, if I buy a used RX-7 with already 100,000km on it. Would rebuilding the whole engine be worth it, or just should I just rebuild the needed parts? And if I just do the needed parts, would it be close to rebuilding the whole thing? Ack what to do. I'm not even sure what to ask a qualified mechanic! All I want is a RX-7 that runs like new.
