Me, my brother, and the rest of the guys at Team Rose Hulman Motorsports. (well, they haven't worked on it, but I'd trust them more than any dealer or local mechanic)

Myself too.. It seems we have alot of rotary specialists on here.. If it is something I can't handle at least I can go to Mazcare(Atlanta, GA).. Charlie the owner used to race 1st and 2nd gen Rx-7s.. For rebuild I am going to Rotaryresurrection.. I agree with everyone about taking their car to someone unknown.. DON"T DO IT.. I did once with my 87' and luckily lived to tell about it.. My 88' GXL is doing fine now that I know better..

ME ME and only ME. The last time one of my cars saw a shop was when the last owners had it. She got it tuned up right before she sold it to me. The shop put in the wrong plugs which were too long and they ate grooves in the apex seals. How stupid can you get? The bastard deserves a kick in the nads. This left me searching for a parts car within a month of getting my car back in January 03 But all is well now.

Me only, no one touches my car but me. I have owned it for 1 year and no one but me has ever driven it. The only person I will trust with my car is my good friend who owns a transmission shop. I don't do trans works, everything else I do myself. And my 7 has never needed any trans work.
