JDM 2003–2008 Mazda RX-8 13B MSP Renesis 6-Port Rotary Engine — Rebuild Core, Low Compression — Approx. 60,000 Miles
Read this first: this engine is giving very low compression numbers on the leading ports and will need new apex seals before it can be run. We are listing it honestly as a rebuild core, priced accordingly — it is not a drop-in running engine. If you want a Renesis you can install and drive, call us and we'll point you at one of our other units instead.
Genuine Japanese-domestic-market 13B MSP Renesis 6-port rotary, imported directly from Japan by JDM Alliance. Serial 13B-470098. The engine is not seized and turns freely — a sound basis for a rebuild, with the intake, exhaust and ancillaries included so you're not sourcing those separately.

What you'll receive
We stock multiple examples of most engines, and the unit photographed is one of them. If this particular engine has sold we'll match you to another in the same condition and mileage range. Before anything ships we send you photographs and the serial number of the actual engine you're getting — you approve it first.
Fitment
The 6-port and 4-port Renesis are not interchangeable across manual and automatic applications without supporting changes. Confirm fitment with your mechanic before ordering — call or text us and we'll help you check.
Warranty
This rotary engine is sold AS-IS with no warranty. The low compression described above is a known, disclosed condition of this unit and is not covered. We verify that every rotary we sell is free of seizing before it ships.
