Ihor/Rotary Experiment Seven and Rich/GoodfellasFD3S - Great Experience and Business

Great Experience working with them. Bought a completely molested 3rd gen in december, every body panel was keyed, motor was roasted (and made up of fd and t2 parts) all types of mayhem.

I'm mainly into FC's so I didnt know all the differences between the FD and FC motors, i figured there were a lot less then there are.

I also was waiting on getting parts from a vendor who I wont name, because they screwed me over with my FC, but anyway they were very courteous, opened the block found out that all I could really reuse was one rotor and the e-shaft. They actually personally owned the exact spare parts I needed and gave me a great deal on them.

They dealt with my own timing issues, waiting for parts, and were very understanding. I'd gladly bring any motor work I have to them for their work. They fully explained everything, even detailed the reccommended break-in and explained the warranty.

I brought the motor home (it was probably end of february,beginning of march) it sat for maybe 2 weeks (had to wait on more parts) then we dropped it in.

After priming the system with oil I cranked it over for the first time, and that baby puttered right to life and idled, albeit rather smokey but still idled beautifully for an untuned brand new motor.

Plus Ihor is always around when I need quick tech advice, or just to double check my opinion on setting something up with the car. The car idles like a beast and sounds beautiful once the revs are up (well up to 4k, thats as high as I will go for now, for the breakin). Plus it feels like they did a great job matching the ports to my turbo, which was originally a t04r but is now a t04z. It's a battle to keep the car from boosting, and I'll tell you I cant wait to see what it does under boost!

Definitely give these guys a call when you need something for your car! Can't wait to see what numbers it puts down.

Kevin.
