I've ordered so much from Ray, he doesn't even need to ask me for my last name or card number. He never takes more than 1-2 days to get the parts to me. Never had a screw up...I wish other shops can learn from his business model. He knows these cars so well, he can even help you diagnose your problem.

Ray is great with ANY parts, not only RX-7's!!!

In my family there are a few Mazdas: 2000 Protege (sister), 2002 MPV (cousin), 2006 Mazda5 (mom) and my 2003 Protege5 and 1993 FD

I call Ray for all my parts needs and he's always great!

Yeah, Malloy is the only place Ill buy OEM.

Bought a new engine wiring harness a few months ago, listed at a little over 1k...Ray got it to me for 780 shipped. Approximately 300 dollar savings.

Yes, I ordered/spoke with him today! We will see him at the Dragon, and I can't wait to thank him/meet him in person. I'm been thinking all of us will need to stand by our cars so everyone knows who's who.

Thank you Ray, you are the definition of great service!

ima go ahead and tack right on that the guy is superfast, and wise in the ways, I described for him a part via email no pic, that all local dealers and auto parts stores could NOT figure out with the part and a pic, and THE MAN RAY CROWE shot me an email back so quik with great pricing and exactly what I needed!!!!!

Got a saying here in Hawaii, "if you don't know Ray Crowe, then you don't know your FD". Great guy and best service around, I went to a Mazda dealer for parts once and never came back after getting parts from Ray.

Also ordered a rebuilt 13b engine from him that is still running fine. Too bad other service related business don't follow his methods.

Ray hooked me up on my reman engine through 'Rotary Extreme' when they were still in business, and made sure I got the highest quality motor before shipping it out. He is without a doubt awesome!

I'd like to say that Ray took care of me. I needed a coolant overflow tank, and just like that, it appeared on my porch. Thank you Ray!

I bought a set of pillowball bushings and dust caps from Ray. Good price and service. No complaints.
