Rotaries on the east coast

I know lots of imports are more abundant on the west..... Or at least it seems with all the places I've been heh heh...

I was wondering... Does anyone know of good shops that work on rotary engines on the east coast, preferably very near North Carolina? I will try to take care of my car mostly on my own... But I'd also like somewhere to turn to for things I'd be afraid of messing up or have little confidence in my doing.... Or.... Things I mess up on my own, heh heh.




Added... I know several of you have shown preference to lamotorcars.com .... Which is a really cool place... But I was wondering... What other sites are good for finding RX-7s?

I don't plan to buy one just yet, would rather get more money and knowledge first.... And would like to have a myriad of options... Lance seems cool, but has almost all red cars, which I don't want :p


I'm pretty sure both topics here have been addressed before, and am sorry if I've posted on something already done and annoy anyone with this topic heh heh.

Thanks,
Tyler

For a while I thought I never posted this, and kept thinking about doing it. BUt then decided to see if I did ( my memory is an odd thing you can see ) But umm..... Hah hah, thanks. I feel stupid, I've been aware of that forum all along, and BAM, mind went blank a while.

And this is one late reply.... Heh heh, 28th... Last was on the 17th...

IRP!!

They got cars from all over. Last time I was there, they had a car from South Carolina there.

Great, honest work there. They are the sole reason its feasible for me to own a 7.

There are several decent rotary shops reasonably near Charlotte. Post in the SouthEast Forum and ask.

A quick google gives you http://www.rotorsportsracing.com/ which is just up the road from you in Kannapolis
