I would buy it, its hard to care about a part that we don't have

On a side note, you are probably referring to coolant seals, and/or appex and side seals which I would not purchase the car with.

General rule of thumb is 4K for a new motor for an Rx8, best advice to give you is buy one that has good compression and is running. I mean these cars are cheap enough on their own when they are in near perfect condition. Save yourself the trouble

The only way this car has a head gasket is if someone put a different motor in it.

This car comes with no cylinders just 2 spinning doritos but you might not get that either
