Question need info on rotary's

I would love to have a 93-94 RX7, but so often I see that they have had motors replaced or rebuilt, with only 60k miles on them. I know they are not really reliable, but what kind of $$$ does it cost to fix these motors? or replace them? is it alot?

Also, which was the bad boy? R-1 or R-2?

The R1 is like the factory lightweight racing model. Its the fastest of the American 3rd gens....


The main reason they blow is lack of oil changes.

You can buy a running 13BTT-REW Jspec for $1950...

There was an R2 model . Basically the same thing as the R1 just came with different seats and stuff again . Better suspension .

I think R2's are only 94-95 though as R1's are 91-93
