NW Transplant!

Hey NW guys and gals, just relocated from the East coast to the Vancouver/Portland area for work.

I don't even have an rx-7 right now for many reasons including a cross country move (did have a rotary miata in the works but had to ditch it as I wasn't dragging it across the US) but I've had quite a few and I'm sure it's only a matter of time. But anyways any of you local guys want to go out for a beer, or need a hand with your rotary, or want to show me some sweet NW roads, give me a shout!

I've owned a good amount of 7's and a dealt with a handful of rebuilds and overall moderate power builds (transplants, turbo upgrades, EMS installation, and tuning on my cars only) for myself and friends. I'd be happy to lend a hand with whatever you have going on or if I'm in over my head at the very least I'll stand there with a beer and say great job!

Matt

Woo BUR!

I'm currently in Vancouver (for reasons irrelevant now) pretty close to the Westfield Mall, and working in Portland. Although I think I'd much rather live in Portland, anyone down for a rotary commune? Rent is too damn expensive out here!

And of course I'm working for that Dec 9th meet, damn!

BTW RW-7 if you're in Willimette and you probably know the Willimette weekly, you can say you kinda know the poor guy who prints that, unless it looks like **** then somebody else definitely did

cool.
I have heard of it. I'm sure I have even read it a time or two. I'll surely have to look into it now. Where can I pick one up? Any locations on the OSU campus?

Hmm don't really pay attention to where they go, probably though, it's distribution is supposed to be the valley but mostly Portland and surrounding I would imagine.

Come on guys I got tools, let's tear something apart and perhaps put it back together correctly!

Why are there so many rotary people in OR and not WA....


I currently have my rotating assembly at Atkins, after that I will be building an S5 Tii for my vert. That will be used as my getaway car in my wedding.
