12a from 74-82 is like 10lbs
83-85 is like 9.6 or so, about the same as the s5 13b
i dont know about the pre-73 12a's, ive got some rotors, but they are like the 74-85 13b rotors, useless

The rx8 is dimensionally similar to the FD shaft, which are staggered bearing designs. In truth most turbo motors power peak is so far below the reasoning for the rx8 stuff, the cost benefit difference really doesnt make it add up.. The RX8 gears arent any stronger than what its in an FC block..
Thanks.

probably one of those post-'96 special model REW engines that never came here. am i close?
OK I will give it up...
13b/20b mazda sports kit rotor.. 4000 g, 9.4 compression, 3mm groove for carbons. Produced during the 90's and floating around Japan in the odd used parts store, usually without the required counterweights. This was the rotor produced for the mazda sport kit PP engine that was availabe to the public in 309 ps for 13b and 450ps for 20b forms. The rotors were also available seperately.

zry1-11-b10a listing says "rotor gear secured with snap ring, light weight rotor for 13b engines, 3750gm" then as a footnote it says "using 20b lightweight rotors in the 13b engine requires 13b rotor bearing (zry1-11-b21) and rebalancing the whole rotating assembly"
nla here, dealer cost is 1693.05 each
