Also try "Niiice" (Brianna) - she drives a red FD and lives in the Santa Rosa area. And you can check out Rick's Rotary (http://www.ricksrotary.com) while you're up here.

Rick at Rick's Rotary seems to be alot better at getting back to you than other shops I have dealt with. I will have my 89 GTU in there for some work in about a week. You can also stop by Auto RND in Milpitas and see Rishie and Dana. They are both good guys and Rishie sure knows his FC tire and rim fitments. Calavaras road is a nice twisty road that goes from Milpitas to Sunol (HWY 84 & I680).

RotaryExtreme is a great play to get parts. I got my koyo radiator the day after i ordered it. Chuck, the owner is very nice, and isnt like most shops trying to sell you what they have but sells you what you want. He'll tell you what you should get and what you should and what you dont have too.

Dont go to AutoRnD the owner rishie tried to scam me by not letting me return a strut bar i bought brand new from him that didnt fit because i had two left brackets. Wanted me to take him to court to get my money back.

Interesting....i've never seen a red FD in Santa Rosa. I know of one in Rohnert Park but some dude drives it....

I've only seen one girl in Santa Rosa driving a Rotary...it was an 88 'vert and we played tag on the fwy one day. TII vs Vert....Hot blonde thing vs goth guy....we had fun!

My grandparents live in Marin. I don't think you will find many rotary shops. Maybe a few porsche and land rover shops, but I doubt you would find a rotary shop in Marin county.

Oh yeah there are a bunch of nice twisty roads around here... Sorry I didn't see it sooner.. quite a few with an ocean side view.

As far as shops... not really any official. I used to have and still have people some how contact/find me and ask me to work on their car car troubleshooting whatever issues they are having. Anything major motor work wise and I would send them towards Ben (karack) in Yuba City. Else its the guys in the East Bay (if the people don't want to drive/tow it that distance...)
