Well I'm not absolutely sure yet that the housings aren't toast as well haha. But at first glance they look pretty good. I'll have to reassemble to see what the clearances are on all that. We were disassembling outside and it was cold, so we made it as fast as possible haha. I'll post pics of the rotors but I think they might have made contact with the housings in a couple spots, right at the corner seals. As I mentioned some of them were ground down a bit and you can see those corners of the rotor have some markings.
I thought about getting RX-8 parts but I wasn't sure what all I needed. I know the e-shaft is half a pound lighter but other than that I don't really know much about it all.
So you're saying the engine you tore down had been re-nitraded?
I have no idea if someone local can do the rockwell test, but I can find out.
