Rebuild done, she's back.
Kevin at Rotary Resurrection has been rebuilding my 8 for the past month. It is finally finished and she's back. The mileage was 88,400 when the rebuild took place, and there's only 400 miles on the rebuilt motor. Only 600 more miles until I can stomp the gas!
Parts that were replaced were:
Rotor Housings (new)
Main Front Bearing (new)
Motor Mounts (new)
All seals (new)
Clutch (new, Exedy Stage 1)
Break in period is approximately 1000 miles. (Keeping RPM's under 4k, throttle below halfway, etc.)

Interesting, I assume you just took your whole car over then as you're in Tenn.
I'm in denver so I'd have to ship the engine and probably have the mazda dealership install it. They're quoting me 8,000 to get an already rebuilt engine sent to me. Still seem's like it would be cheaper to do go through Rotary Resurection though.

Yeah I've read completely opposing stories so there's really no way of knowing unfortunately. At least until something goes wrong. I really hope it will last me. So far I am liking it. It engages a lot sooner than the OEM clutch. My only complaint is that the engagement is not as defined. It's a bit mushier and harder to predict. But not so much to where it's not worth buying. I'd say go with one if you need a replacement clutch, but I honestly would never have swapped out a perfectly good working OEM just to get the "stage 1 experience".
