Good San Diego shop?

I was wondering if anyone knows of any good rotary shops in San Diego? I just moved down here from washington state and shipped the 7 with me. Currently stay in IB.

SD is a desert when it comes to good rotary shops. Im about a mile from autotech (really close to IB) and yet I still take my 7 to LA

recommended SD RX-7 shop

I've been going to Z-Whizz since 1984 (they're now called Aero Auto Care, off of Aero and 15). They're trustworthy, affordable, and know rotary engines well. Highly recommended - tell Gary that Dave from the RX-7 Club says "Hi!".

Dave is right. He referred me to Gary at Aero and they have done an awesome job on my FD!

When I lived down there I took my FD to Z-Whizz a couple times and they did a great job. Aero/Zwhizz whatever, I would recommend them.

Yeah don't go to pan auto, I've heard people getting cars stolen after they service them. Maybe getting all the info and searching your car :/
