yeah there are aftermarket ones that are better than mazdas for sure. What i should have said is that Mazda were the first to make decent seals

Check Hurley from google.. they produce even better apex seals and rebuild kits.

+ for vid, never knew how a rotary really worked, they say simple engine design, yet i still believe a normal piston engine seems more simple... then again maybe that's bcuz i'm always around normal engines =P

they comsume oil bout a quart every 1200 to 2000 miles,and oil change every 3000 miles.they have a metering pump that drips oil into the intake for the seals.

thanks for the video. very informative, i didn't knew this stuff.

because mazda is the only manufacture that has successfully made good apex seals and has the patent on them.

most likely not, i may be wrong but these engines are capable of higher rpms and considering that diesel takes a longer cycle that combustion engines i doubt diesel would be used
For those considering buying a new vehicle, don't forget to check out the new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Great for adventures off road, just for cruising around town, or running to the store.

The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel trim and the door inserts match the body.
