you can order them directly from Rotary Aviation. Most people go back to stock mazda. Really depends on what you want to do. Good luck.

thanks phat7 i will hit it up

 

[phat7]

no probs. I've used their seals with no probs thus far. There's been reports of RA seals being too hard but i guess in every product you get pros and cons.

i got a set of 3mm ceramic seals from RotorMaster, but not inner ring..... Is there any workshop in SG that can balance the rotor??

 

[phat7]

RA sometimes take a little longer than others as they have backorders. just call them at their office and i'm sure it'll be sorted out quickly.

my last experience... no back order.. but shipment is a little delay due to alot of transit... from their place to florida (3 stops).. to miami (2 stops).. then overseas...
