What about ASpec Tuning in Schaumburg? Are they still around? If I ever find a decent FD around here I was hoping to use them since thats the closest shop to Milwaukee I could find.

 

Yea they are still around. Went there this summer to see if they had a o2sensor for my wideband.

 

What did you think of A-Spec? Do they still deal mostly deal with 7's?

 

Aspec is alright. They share the building with another shop. Mostly fd's

 

Im new to rx7's just picked up an SE a month ago.

 

^post pics! Where do you live?

 

I live in Madison. I haven't taken to many pics yet {it looks alittle rough} in the process of rebuilding the brakes and the fuel system. hopes are to have it track ready by spring.

 

its about time there is another FB running around here in the madison area... i was getting lonely . where abouts in madison are you located?

 

I live in Fitchburg

 

sussex/oconomowoc here. usually somewhere between the 2.

 

I guess the milwaukee area people dont wander the forums much? Ive been lookin to get in touch with someone nearby but no ones replied to the threads ive posted on.

 

I'm local. What's up?

 

Well, there's a beast that sleeps in waukesha, but I don't know much about it, I was wonderring if this was a local car and if someone knew anything about it, or if someone's checked it out. Had to come from somewhere right? Heres the link, and is that a missing passenger door handle? Idk, I wanna get it, and I know FD maintenance is high, but I don't wanna have to do an engine rebuild right away, even though the used dealership does warranty all there cars over $3gs, for 3k miles.

I live on the eastside. I've seen that car on craigslist for a few months.

 

so whats yours guys thoughts on it?
motor rebuild around 50-60k i guess then the rebuilt has another 54k on it, hopefully the owner took better care of the car 2nd time around?

 

Im in Appleton and have an 88 FC TII, also had an 85 se that I restored and gave to my Dad, so its down in FL now.

 

One thing I have noticed is that compared to FL and HI the mazda dealership here is terrible to work with. The guys in the parts dept are helpless, couldn't order me parts unless I brought in the printout of the parts manual and talked to the damn manager. Basically told me parts I knew for sure that mazda still makes don't exist... terrible. So whatever you do don't go to Bergstrom.

 

I use Malloy Mazda. Talk to Ray they are excellent for RX7 parts plus get discount! Search posts for Malloy Mazda and Ray Crowe

 

i can usually get what i want at the local mazda dealership here in madison, but you have to be patient. 1 guy is more than willing to help, while the other is the kinda guy who hates everything mazda, yet has been a parts slinger at the dealership for years...go figure

 

Seen a red s5 vert at badger bowl in madison today. black TII hood, aftermarket exhaust, stock bbs wheels. Anyone on here?

 

I'm also on the east side of Milwaukee. My car has been hiding for the past four years since I was in school. The body is in rough shape, but the internals are good.

I hope to go to some meets this year. I used to go to some in Michigan.

 

Nice avatar!

 

this thread still alive?

 

...it twitches ocassionally


I was out and about driving like a dick and annoying people with my exhaust yesterday. Got some fresh fuel in her and intentionally went a lil heavy on the premix for extra lube action, roughly 40 miles, 2 hrs and probably too many 8k rpm shifts. But what can i say, i like the sound of lightly muffled duals on a 13B On my small excursion I found another FB rx7 and cruised with him for a few miles, and a lil bit later i was being "aggresively" followed by an Rx-8... but neither of them wanted to play with me
