Just curious? Are they a new outfit? They are really close to my home so it may save me a trip to RRand Reliability in Santa Ana. Thanks....

 

The best place around is Rotary power Gardena. Honest & reliable which unfortunatly does not go hand & hand here in California. Jeff knows what works. And can guide you into the right direction. Also Norman at sidepex is an honest guy and a good person to deal with we used to race in Hacienda Heights together in the 80's. Started with a turbo toyota and ended up into rotaries LOL he's a good guy and is trust worthy. I think he is located in Temple City. Best of luck to you.

Wow, it took over 8 years for frank69m to get a response to his post

 

 

 

wont say names but when some of this shops tell you almost 5k for a 13b N/A rebuilt it makes you want to laugh over the phone.

 

Glad you took the initiative to help the guy out.

 

this thread fails

 

of course it does but thats just how we roll

 

No kidding! WTF! If you go to R and R in Upland, I think they moved locations tho, tell Steve I said 'Hello'.

 

 

good one!

 

Steve don't work for his dad anymore.

 

Really? What's the scoop? His dad did all the motor work.

small world ! norman doesn't work at sidepex anymore... he came down with brain cancer about 2 years ago, i actually bought his stock montego blue fd that has been sitting ever since he started chemo (sp?)

 

I'm not sure what the deal is with R&R, but last I heard they were in Glendora, NOT Upland. Also, the motor in my car was built by them (Steve's dad, the "Wolf"), and it's got about 25k miles on it with a lot of abuse...

 

N00b! Here is a short history...they were in Pomona...then Uplan..I guess now they are in Glendora. Duh!

 

is that off the 210 or 10 Fwy

 

210 is closest, but the 10 gets you there too. Anybody know R & R's business hours?

 

i think 9 to 6 i think!
but i like there new shop looks like they got more rooms for cars, and it's not surrounded by a lot of other shops like it was in upland.

 

Awesome, thanks for that bit of info DrifterX. I'm trying to find a shop near by to give it a diagnostic on my car. It's running rich/lean and it needs a good tune up anyways. I troubleshot it as best as I could, but I must humble myself and take it to a shop.

Can I just drive up to the shop and walk in or do I need to make an appointment?

 

Thanks for setting the record straight
