Have you owned a rotary before? Could you say for yourself whether or not it needs rebuilding? Thats like being too pussy to get a DSM *just* because some of them get crank walk. Same could be said for MkIII Supras, if you are a fucking retard and dont retorque the head properly until you get a MHG and studs, then you're going to get a BHG. Its avoidable on MkIIIs, and (again, assuming your not a complete fuck) if you were to take care of your 13B, I'd think that you wouldnt need to rebuild it nearly as soon, if at all

i got crankwalk in one of my DSM's, and have a supra that had a blown head gasket..
seriously, buy something expendable, you obviously cant drive if you wrecked a 350Z, and when you kill yourself, it doesnt need to be in such a nice car as a Supra or RX7...but if you do kill yourself in a supra, dont fuck up the motor, cause i want it

So why dont you take a little bit more time reading and researching thru the threads, rather than giving your ridiculous opinions and unwanted advice.

I've owned many cars but I can't say a supra (though I have owned a camry 
) I've never been stuck anywhere in the 2 rx7s I've owned and one was/is turbocharged and modified. Don't believe the hype guys.
Heres the problem. MANY people do not properly maintain their vehicles. Rotaries simply will not allow it. Most piston engines will last 100x longer if both are not maintained. Also, rotaries don't put up with overheating or preignition nearly as well as piston engines. Now if you keep things maintained (mostly just changing oil/coolant very regularly) and make sure you don't overheat or run lean you should be perfectly fine. I won't go and say all rotaries last 200k if properly maintained but there have been some that last 300k so it is possible. I also know that piston engines will last a bit longer usually no matter what, but rotaries are not as problematic as people think. Its mostly people that have never owned one or just never known how to properly maintain the one they have owned that spread the negative word. Just remember rotaries are actually MUCH simpler than piston ones, and no one can argue that.
As far as which to buy...buy the one you like the best

I'm not up on all the engine codes but does that mean you've owned a TT supra and rx7 and now own a NA supra? Can I ask why that is?

Get a driver's license. THEN pretend to know what you're talking about.
