New Engine "Picture"

[/IMG]

Picture is of OLD engine, So sad, it looks new to me..

Just got My car back today. Well I got to talk to the rotary Specialist and some other mechanics at the mazda shop. I asked questions like what should i Do to prolong my new engines life, do they get alot of rx8 with engine failure, and even if using seafom is a good idea. Well, the first thing he said was, unfortunaly, those engines are the main reason why new to even old Rx8 arent selling. They have a bad reputation due to their engines.. He said it was best to get rid of it if I didnt want to have worries about possible brake downs, that He sees engines go out at from 10k to 150k.. Also to run it hard once a day to keep carbon away, keep oil toped, no syntethics, and that seafom was not such a good idea if i do it too often. things ive known from reading here in the forums. I took a couple of pictures of my old engine. I also noticed my car gained power, no shakinness "Engine mounts were replaced" , and the car was running more silent then before.. I didnt ask about premixing, But I will be trying it with this new engine till I eather sell the car, or keep the car, Im not quiete sure yet...
