I will 100% agree with you on this one they work miracles there. my car was fucked up from another shop and i mean fucked. i can't say the shop name yet because i'm sueing them, and decided to go to the rx7 store and give zavier and jason a shot at fixing my car. i will say 100% worth the 7 hour drive out there. (the only thing i can say is the other shop that fucked my car up, is the owner has man **** and is a crook as well as a liar) But out here we have a nick name for him MR. Hankie just like south park he's a walking talking piece of ****. that i can't wait to see oh boy talk about an *** whooping

Passen is now a stereo shop and JJ hasent worked there in 2 years. Most of the cincinnati shops send their RX-7 work to us, but I havent heard of International Performance Motorworks.

Description: Small one mechanic shop with a good selection of parts cars. Kyle is one of the most knowledgable guys I've ever known. He has every nut and bolt memorized on RX-7's. Not to big on doing extensive modifications. But builds good motors, and does excellent repair work. He's a good guy that's supported rotaries since the early 70's. He deserves your support if you live in SW Missouri.
Rotary Doctor all the way. I have bought cars off him and him and brad seem to help me any time i need it at a low price. This guy knows his 7's.

Hello, My name is Omar J. Mena the owner of OJIMPORTS.COM rotary engine builders and general maintenance. We are located in McAllen Texas (south Texas). Like other rotary builders, we offer anything from standard engine builds, to the common MONSTER STREET PORTED engines. We do offer one unique job that almost no rotary engine builder I have seen offers and that is to bench flow a rotary!Our flow bench is a super flow and we have custom made all adapters and block offs to precisely flow all model rotary engines. Port/polish/flow work really pays off compared to an eye ball port job. Turbulance created by unequal port flow is practically eliminated and hp numbers are significantly raised. Call OJIMPORTS @ 956 739 6362 if you would like some hard to find port flowing done on your rotary. (Over 8yrs of professional rotary engine building.)

Hello Fellow RX7 Enthusiasts,

Let me take a moment to introduce myself… Many of you know me as Indyparts. For those of you who don’t, my name is Rick Hawley, and I, with a little help from my friends, have been providing the Rx7 community with parts for nearly 10 years. However, like all great small ventures, it has come time to expand. Allow me to introduce, Rick’s Speed Shop. We are in construction phase of this endeavor that should be in full production during the Spring of 2008. The shop is based in Winchester, Indiana and has plenty of space for expansion. Our mission will be to continue to provide quality parts and great service for a fair price.

Over the course of the many years, Indyparts has accumulated over 50+ FC shells with a handful of FB and FD shells as well. The availability to find that one part “To make your baby purrr” will not change, but we decided to expand into other areas as well. I, Rick, often have many “irons in the fire” or “***** in the air,” pick your cliché – realized Indyparts need some help. Rick’s speed shop would like to welcome Mike Smith. Mike has substantial FB and FC experience under his belt. In addition he is currently working on his project which is a Rotary powered Mazda B2000 pickup. You can see more information on this at the website. Mike will be heading up the parts sales from this point forward and getting acclimated with the current inventory. If you need anything specific for your Mazda (specifically 86-91) please get in touch with him. We are excited about bringing him on and hope that he will be able to assist the community.

Going forward, we plan to branch out past parts sales and work towards engineering custom parts specifically for the 2nd / 3rd Generation Mazda Rx7. In addition, we plan to start a powder coating service with core return. With the broad amount of parts we already have inventory, exchange service should keep things simple. Look for custom cars being built for customers as well. Who knows where it will end :-)

If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.

Great work, great prices, 1st, 2nd & 3rd gens
Banzai is awesome! I'm picking up my '94 on Saturday, and they were in touch the whole time with pictures and all the info I needed. I live in Michigan so it's a four hour drive for me, but it's totally worth it.

I specialize in 1st gens, all aspects of repair, rebuild or replace. I can, will work on any rotary but refuse to touch the engine bay of 3rd gens.

I built a single stall garage, with a pit, a few years ago just to work on my 7s. Most of my work comes from the Kansas City area but have done work for members as far away as Canada. Not only do I do most any mechanical repairs/upgrades you may need, I also do restoration/preservation work for those that want keep or bring thier 7 back to a new condition. This includes sandblasting, painting, powdercoating and fiberglass work.

For those not familiar with my work, the following link shows part of my widebody build project. https://www.rx7club.com/build-threads-293/unvieling-12a-bp-widebody-462184/

My pricing is fair and I never hurry a job simply to get it finished. All work is done with the same care and detail as if it were my own.

Scott.
