Looking for someone SoCal (Shop or Personal) to do some RX-7 work
I actually wasn't sure if this belonged in this classifieds, or the main forum, so apologies if this is the wrong section.
I'm getting ready to move out of SoCal to Arizona, my car is all ready to go- But my brother's FC (He is currently on deployment) needs some work done to it before the trip. I would normally do this sorta stuff myself, but between moving and relocating everything, I just don't have the time. My brother will be back in early september, and I'd like to have the car ready for him to use as a present for his service.
I would rather, if I'm able, find a forum member who is looking for some summer work, or something to do in their free time, to put my money to, rather than a garage- But Good Garage/Shop recommendations are welcome as well. I'm of course willing to pay for your time as you see fit as long as you do work with pride and don't half-*** things haha. I am looking to get the work done ASAP.
It's a 1988 Turbo II, I'm not quite sure of the modifications entirely done to it, I do know it's a half-bridge, haltech PS1000 car. That's not really related, but it might be important-
The body itself has about 245,000miles on it, the engine was recently rebuilt. But the body is definitely showing its age.
The work I need done that is necessary as follows:
-Engine Mounts (not broken, but very worn)
-Transmission Mounts (not broken, but worn)
-Rear Diff mounts, front as well as "carrier" bushings/mounts for the subframe. I know the car has a broken front diff mount, which is the biggest thing I'd like to take care of. A pinon snubber install would probably be nice as well.
-The Speedometer cable has been yanked out of the transmission at some point, definitely want to try and get that replaced, though that's more of an annoyance than necessary compared to the other things
-The car seems like it could probably use a tie-rod replacement on one of the sides, I don't have the ability right now to diagnose that.
So yeah! If you know anyone, if you are someone, or if you know a good garage that could handle those above tasks, please let me know!

Garage Life is my recommendation. They're very accommodating and the work is always excellent with a fair price. Not to mention having a knowledgeable owner that understands that different owners need different things.
