Hey everybody. I'm planning to rebuild my first motor for my 93 rx7. I'm having problems finding new rotor housings for a good price. Mazda wants way to much even with the 10% over cost that I can get them for. I've heard of people having them imported from Japan and Canada but I can't any suppliers. Can anybody help me? Thanks everybody!!!

$900 from mazdacomp. You need to be a member of SCCA and have raced a couple races though.

When my motor was rebuilt just a bit ago I had one replace they used a new one for a Turbo II and made a minor mod to it saving me about $100, it was around $600 and that was from Mazda I think.

I'm not a member of scca so I don't know how I could get a set through them. Any suggestions?
