Went by there today. Shop has been closed about 2 1/2 years.
Shop next door says pepe is in the restaurant business now. Have not checked # yet but will call and let you guys know.
My fb has their logo on the rear hatch n I think its time for an overhaul. (Leaking at/by dowel pins)
Wanted to check them out since they did it previously. Oh well.

Shop near Largo

Need some help getting car completed. Nothing to complicated, but I have run out of time at the location I was able to work on it.

I see that we've been mentioned a few times in this thread, but just wanted to update with all the current info. For those who don't know, we've been in business for 30 years now, and have tons of rotary building and tuning experience. From 1000hp 13b drag race engines to stock rebuilds, and everything in between. We also do normal repairs and service work, and can handle all makes and models, not just Mazda!

I drove by both recommended locations in Orlando (Ortiz & Kilo) and couldn't find either. Each address was in a group of one-stall installations but I couldn't even discern where they were and I didn't see even one RX7. Are these places for real?
