$521.00 WoW! Most mechanics buy the rebuild kit from Mazda which is $1000.00. That $521.00 total do you buy it from one web site or as a combination of different parts from different web sites? I know I can do this, but I don't have any space to do it or an engine hoist. I also heard that you need special Mazda tools for the rebuild is this true? I don't feel like buying a new car and have to sell this one. The price of used cars keeps going up and is hard to find a used car in decent condition. When I got my 7 is was all dirty, I cleaned it and got it painted. I was also planning on getting convertible rims. I will see if I can post some pics of it, thank you for the info.
