SUMMARY: 

• You supply your engine core to me up front to be rebuilt
• You’ve removed the engine from the car already
• You’ve removed all the external accessories from the engine assembly, such as intake manifolds, water pump housing, oil pan, brackets, sensors, etc. to arrive at the bare engine block
• You transport or pay actual shipping cost both ways
• Your engine core’s rotor housings and other components are reusable. If not, cost of the build will increase. Some cores need two replacement rotor housings which increase the build cost by $2000(04-08) or $2100(09-11).

 

NEW PARTS & SERVICES INCLUDED IN THE ABOVE BASE PRICE (this list represents approx. $1800 retail cost in parts plus 15% tariff on Japan):

• Oem mazda apex seals 
• OEM mazda apex short & long springs
• Oem mazda corner seals 
• Oem mazda corner springs 
• Oem mazda side seals cut to length (occasionally a long slot in a rotor requires the use of an extra-long atkins rotary side seal to obtain proper clearance)
  
• Oem mazda side springs
• Atkins rotary viton oil oring inserts
• Oem mazda inner and outer coolant seals
• Dowel pin orings, tension bolt seals, rear stationary gear o-ring, front/rear main oil seal
• Front cover gasket 
• Atkins rotary thermal pellet replacement for front of e-shaft
• Main bearings
• Rotor bearings
• When rotor housings are reused, they are resurfaced. This service skims material off the top chrome sealing layer to remove light defects and improve the uniformity of the sealing surface, however it cannot repair deep wear or defects and cannot put back worn away chrome. Some other shops provide this service “out the door” for as much as $300 plus round trip shipping, it is included free in my build.
• Spark plug holes threads are cleaned and retapped. OMP injector holes are drilled to remove clogged carbon.
• Factory ~72psi oil pressure regulator snout is pressed to increase oil pressure to approx. 85-90psi. (applies to 04-08 models)
  

 

PARTS REUSED IN THE BUILD (ADDITIONAL CHARGES WILL INCREASE BUILD COST IF ORIGINALS ARE NOT REUSABLE):

• 2) rotor housings
• 2) rotors
• Eccentric shaft
• 2) stationary gears
• Front cover
• 3) iron housings/plates
• Oil pump, chain, sprockets, various small hardware
  
• Rotor metal oil control scraper rings (8), cutoff rings (4), w/ springs (12)

 

OPTIONAL PARTS/SERVICES IF NEEDED OR DESIRED:

• You send your complete engine as removed from the car w/ external accessories still installed, such as intake manifold, water pump housing, wiring, sensors, oil pan etc. I remove those accessories to expose the shortblock for rebuild, then later I reinstall those accessories correctly, resolving vacuum leaks and other previous installation and other issues. Additional labor charges of $300 apply. This charge includes gaskets as needed, meticulous cleaning of lower intake manifold, SSV valve, and APV valves (for 6 port models) to remove carbon buildup. Also includes 3 aftermarket vacuum solenoids to eliminate CEL codes. Note that freight shipping cost increases due to additional weight.
• New rotor housings @ prevailing current prices, approx. $2000/pair 
• New iron housings @ prevailing current prices, approx. $2100/set of 3 
• New metal oil control scraper rings, cutoff rings, w/ springs $550
• New oil pump 04-08 approx. $75,  09-11 @ current prevailing prices
• Streetport all intake ports and exhaust ports $850 (I do not recommend or offer bridge ports for renesis rx8 engines, people want this for sound and clout only as it has never been proven to make additional power and can impact longevity of the engine)
  

 

OTHER INFORMATION/TERMS:

• Turnaround time 2-4 weeks depending on workload waiting ahead of you. January through May are the busiest months with increased wait time and there may be times I stop taking new jobs for a while.
• If you have more than one core or parts of other cores you may bring all of them. I will tear down and inspect all cores/components and the parts left over after your build is completed can be traded in for some additional credit off your bill. 
• Rotary Resurrection is located in Morristown, TN.  Since I work from home, all visits are by appointment only. I am normally available any weekday afternoon or evening 12-7:30pm EST, or Saturday afternoon 12-1.  I am no longer quoting, booking, or setting up freight shipping/transport either way for customer cars or engines, you must handle this aspect yourself or deliver in person.
• Normally once I receive your engine or car, I will continue working on other jobs ahead of you until they are complete, then I will begin yours by tearing down the engine block. I take pictures of each component during disassembly and send you an email containing a link to all of these pictures along with a detailed written description. I will explain any issues, make recommendations and suggestions, and let you decide what to do should additional part replacement be required. Once these issues have been decided upon, I will proceed with the build, and again photo document the cleaned/inspected/prepared parts prior to and during assembly of the block, so that you have documentation of what you have now. Then you will have approximately 1 week to pay the balance and pick up or ship the engine back out.
