Has anybody in here heard of a Jacksonville/Tallahassee fella by the name of Ron Preacher? He did an excellent rebuild of my engine. I just wanted to know if anybody has heard of him or his work. In Jacksonville, he operated at Driving Force for a long time with Don Crisman.

He has a checkered past at best. Not sure how he is now, but people rarely change.

Well how do you mean? You have piqued my interest now. Send me a pm or something.

NativeBeggars 08-05-13 09:17 AM

In all honesty, my experience was good. He tore my old motor apart in front of me, *tossed all my old seals* in the same fashion and did my street port. When it was time for reassembly, he called me in and showed me how to do it, as it was the first rotary I had done and had me do it. Now I'm 5k into the build and not even a hiccup.

pettit racing is amazing!! they did my rebuild and my turbo rebuild, I highly recommend them!

Moved to P.R but still comes down and tunes every once in a while.

Just had my car tunned by Roger at Pros/Japtrix in West Palm.
Well worth the 70 mile drive. Car runs awesome now. Roger is extremely knowledgeable and i could not have asked for more.
If you have been hesitant about who to trust for a tune like i was, This where you need to go.

I bought my FC from that guy. He's awesome! Lots of neat projects he has around the shop too.

I also purchased one of my FCs from Roger. Not one single problem! (At least none that were his fault lol) He did a fresh rebuild/street port and it runs beautifully!

He also rebuilt my Cosmo when the water seals went out recently (20B). I don't trust many shops with a rotary motor and even less with such a rare import as the Cosmo, but I felt confident leaving it with Roger. He deals with many rare imports. He always kept me updated with the progress and his son sent me a few photos as well. When I got it back it looked like it had never even left the engine bay (ninja swap). It runs very strong and smooth. Only had one hiccup where the car shut down and was stuck on the side of the road. He offered to have a tow truck come out and get me so he could fix it. Turned out to be the stock bov cap popped off which I don't believe is his fault, so I popped it back on and I'm looking into getting an aftermarket one.

He's also in the process of rebuilding the engine for my race car. He's very honest. I knew the motor was pretty fresh, but coming from Japan and sitting for a little while I wanted to refresh it just in case. He confirmed it was very clean and only recommend what I needed (Gasket set, side seals)

He also has provided a warranty for his work. The FC I bought from him and the Cosmo both got 12mo warranty. I'm not sure if he will warranty the race motor because of the conditions it will see, but he's a good guy and I know he'll help me out.

I think his prices are extremely fair for the quality of work he does. It's not the cheapest, but by far not the most expensive either.

Highly recommend them.

NativeBeggars 10-26-14 09:50 AM

That's awesome. Know if roger does any work with Rteks?

Also any of you guys in here know of anyone with a parts yard in FL? Still looking for a passenger door and mirror for my S5 with no luck.

Mazda 13B Engine
 
Looking to buy a NEW 6 Port 13B Engine anyone out there has one for sale or does the Mazda Dealer have new ones for sale. Thanks.

NativeBeggars 11-08-14 10:03 AM

No such thing as a new 13B. In any respect. Unless someone paid the money for zero mile parts, built it and it sat. Lol smdh

wcr2k11 01-15-15 07:41 PM

Hey guys.
