Cool Need a RX8 engine

I am new to this site but need some help finding a used rx8 13b automatic engine, preferably with under 40k miles. If anyone could help me out finding one it would be appreciated.

Never fear, Jedi is here!

ciobanu: where are you located?
Best place to get that engine is from our friend Paul over at Mazmart. Here's a link: https://www.rx8club.com/mazmart-88/remanufactured-rotary-engines-104255/

What happened to your engine?

The warranty on the engine core is 8 yrs/100,000 miles. Are you sure you want to buy a replacement engine?

Jedi: It looks like he is in Virginia.

I'm wondering if this is for HIS car or for a customer? Maybe he's installing it in someone else's car?

OF course that doesnt mean good engines aren't out there...it just means the odds of you getting one are not in your favor.
50k dam. I hope mines last longer than that lol but if she kicks, I would send you a PM
