Just a small correction to a misconception,the apex seals are not RX8 type,
The seals that are now made by Mazda for the 3rd gen RX7 are of a 2 piece type that is similar to the RX8 but they are 9.5mm deep,the RX8\'s are only 4.5mm deep.
They are not stronger than the earlier 3 piece type that was used in the production 3rd gen RX7.
Regards
Carl
