nice is there anybody around my area that works on rotary engines? need to get a few things done. Compression check and few other goodies

 

I rebuild, fab and tune, Computer wise I have only worked with the Power FC and Motec units though if you do your own wiring, I am sure that I could also work with AEM or Haltech, I just have not had anybody bring one f those two around me.

I also have the digital electronic compression tester. Come down one weekend and we can do a compression check.

There's a shop just up Route 16 (Boit) that handles quite a bit RX7, but they are costly. Reaction Racing in Sagamihara does great work and its considerably less. They built my engine and I'm yet to drive another 7 that feels and sounds as smooth.

 

There are quite a few 7 owners here at Yokota

 

Sounds good............how much did it cost you???

 

any engine rebuild will cost you a few $$$. Depending on how much you want to reuse (if possible) the price can vary. Simple seal replacement and other odds and ends will cost about $2K...to have most of the engine replaced; plates, rotors, seals, hoses, bead blasting...you're looking at about $5K ~ $6K.

 

Do you have their contact info?

My engine is blown now.
