go to diy re .com and se what they say that guy who answered first is wrong i built 2 4-rotor engines and it isn't a block you're looking for it is 4 rotor housings the hard parts to find are the intake,exhaust, and the eccentric shaft(crank shaft)I had to make all those parts myself.But for 2132rwhp with dual t-71 turbos is well worth it. MAKE a custom car to handle the power,no skyline (lame) or any production car can withstand the torque.Happy building!

The E-Shaft is something you will likely have to build yourself. Last I heard Mazdaspeed in the US of A will sell you the housings of the 26B, if you're a dealer...Complete engines sold back in the day for about 120K in U.S dollars, but you had to be a racing team, like Jerv said not something your regular dude can aquire. Also this motor is differn't than a lot of the Custom four rotor engines rolling around. The way it's cooled, 3 spark plugs per rotor, huge peripheral ports and so on, cermite coatings, alluminum where cast iron used to be, dry sumped etc. There is a shop in Atlanta that used to do Mazda GT racing (the name slips me) that apparently has a bunch of Lemans grade 26Bs. I would think they would part with one for the right $$$ considering how the economy is treating anyone who works with cars.
I suppose you could always build a custom one with 13B housings from these dudes www.kiwi-re.com

That four-rotor engine was built exclusively for the GT racing cars; they NEVER found there way into a showroom. I would like to know where you found out such a purchase were possible and refute the validity of that source. Most automakers do NOT sell their high-end racing stuff to regular people. I think somebody is hitting the crackpipe a bit hard.
Get a three-rotor from a Cosmo. It is far more obtainable and you likely won't have to do anything illegal to get one.
Does a 2003 B3000 Mazda truck have a timing chain?

The Mazda rotary (Wankel) engine had only THREE moving parts, which means that much less could go wrong with it, and it had fewer reasons for repairs, yet it was never popular at all. What caused its lack of acceptance by the motoring public?

Is it true the 2011 "Mazda 2" is the best small car EVER made?

I'd like to see that. Seriously.
Anyone claiming THAT sort of horsepower either has concrete proof or is full of shit.
Show us which one of those two you are.
