Rotary Evolution
5 is fine with a supersonic cranking speed of 300rpms? no, but maybe you misunderstood him.
maybe that is their standard but i would be a little bit concerned that you have a full point difference on the one rotor between faces. that seems borderline low even for average cranking speeds to me(most crank around or slightly below 250rpms).

At that 292RPM your front is completely gone, and your rear is not strong at 272RPM (passing but low), see the numbers below and attached diagram.

Standard @ 250RPM: 8.5kgf/cm2
Minimum @ 250RPM: 6.9kgf/cm2
Standard difference in chambers: within 1.5kgf/cm2
Standard difference in rotors: within 1.0kgf/cm2
Front Specs you should have:
Standard @ 292RPM: 9.2kgf/cm2
Minimum @ 292RPM: 7.5kgf/cm2
Rear Specs you should have:
Standard @ 271RPM: 8.7kgf/cm2

rebuild questions
There are 3 different shops that mainly deal with rx7's by me and im looking for a rebuild on my 04'. My question is i really dont know the experience these shops have rebuilding out motors..... Is rebuilding a 7 motor similar to ours? If there good at the rx7 rebuilds would that make them qualified to rebuild out motors? I wouldnt mind sending my motor to be built but then i have to pay for the labor of someone removing it and installing it so financially it might not be worth it (im not that mechanically inclined to remove the motor and install a new one)

This thread was inevitable *sigh*
Also why start a new thread? why not just add a post to your existing thread here

Im sure they can rebuild the engine for you, remember a cheap rebuild is like a bottle of stop leak its a waste of money and wont last long.
With that in mind there are only a slight handful of reputable shops I would ever let touch my engine and for that your pay for it. It all depends on how deep your pockets go. For that matter everything about our cars require deep pockets and patience.
My recomendations
Pettit
Pineapple
RR
MM
If you can't afford to do it right, then just don't do it.

Anyone can pull a motor with basic hand tools, and instructions. Try attempting it, only way to become more mechanically inclined is applying yourself. And it will save you a lot of cash in the process
For builders find a highly regarded one. personally use Pineapple Racing but have heard great things about Pettit, And others
