A proper, heated, secure working facility
about 40 hours of actual work, give or take.
A variety cleaning solvents, grease, sealants etc.

So no, you can't rebuild your engine using paper for apex seals!


EDIT: on the other hand, you are trying to ask if the DIRECTIONS in the Haynes manual are adequate enough, then yes... somewhat... if you already have some experience rebuilding the engine... so no, not really, not for your first time.

I suggest buying a black ink cartidge for your car, and then printing the engine rebuild section from the online Factory Service Manual... (should be 50~60 pages or so) As well as purchasing a few rotary engine rebuild DVD's from Atkins, Mazdatrix, etc.
obviously, cheers tho!!
