WTS RX8 Modified Competition Engine Rotors 675.00 Shipped
Here are a pair of Mazda OEM Engine rotors from a 2007 RX8. these are high compression engine rotors with a 10:1 compression ratio. They have been machined over to use 3mm apex seals and have also been machine and lightened and matched balanced to within 7 grams. front rotor weighs 4038 grams and rear rotor weighs 4032 grams. The bearings are in excellent condition and ideally broken in for competition purposes.

There is no broken seal or any of the sort. that pic was taken before the milling of the apex seal groove was completed and that corner was heated and grided to correct damage cause by the previous 2mm apex seal. I assure you that there is no damagae whatsoever. as for the lightening. there is .100 of material removed from each rotor face. Making them significantly lighter than stock as well as matched balanced.

I understand i dont have much of a trade refference on this forum but thats because I deal more on the Rx7 forum. you can check my trade refference there and history. I do not sell crap or garbage. the only reason im not using these rotors anymore is because we have changed the set up to be run on the 4 Rotor 26B we are building to 4xS5 rotors instead.

i guess you took different pics. the broken side seal pic is not there anymore. not crapping just making sure you know what you are doing and not trying to rip anyone off. we are a tight family over here :P
Do you use bigger side seals for the smaller rotor face?

I only remove .100 of material so this leaves plenty of steel left to prevent cracking. I do not have an e-shaft for the rotors. I use the one in my engine now. As for heat cycle, they have only been used the amount of time they were in the original engine which was 27468 miles. Like i saud before in my previous post. I do not sell garbage. if you do the math you are getting a very very good deal. They charge about 180.00 to lighten the rotors then about 320.00 to do the 3mm apex cut plus the cost of the rotors.
Awsome deal!
i just wanna free up space and get some cash back

wow. wow. wow.
i just checked what these weigh in pounds, 8.90 and 8.88 respectively.
thats nuts! the stock rotors weigh 9.2lbs. thats a good .3lbs lighter. that's really going to help with horsepower. i almost wish i had a reason to get my engine rebuilt right now.

That is the whole idea, i use these for road racing so they are really put thru thier paces. as i mentioned before this is exact replica of the set-up in my car now and we have made 280 RWHP on a 13Bpp Engine with these rotors
