Rotor Housings
Just today I looked into the spark plug hole on my series 1 04' rx8 and turned the flywheel. (The engine was out) I see all 6 apex seals still sat in each rotor (Yay!) but when i compression tested it before I removed the engine, I got 80, 40,40 on the front rotor. Are wore out apex seals enough to cause this drastic loss of compression? Or does this mean that my housings are shot?

Who has the best prices on new SE3P housings? Mazdatrix gets $725.00 and Atkins wants $850.00. I found a company in Japan who ships to the states, anyone ever bought from these guys??

I thought so too, they look reputable although you never know. I haven't called my local Mazda dealer but If I had to guess they would be even more then Atkins. Who is it that has the one housing for sale? I checked the classified section unless I overlooked it...
