Rotary Shop (South Bay)

Hey, the shop i go to for all my (piston needs), is really great, but since i got an RX-7 across the street there is a shop called MAZDA AUTO REPAIR BY ROTORSPORT. It's on El Camino Real, in Santa Clara. Has anybody gone there? Good/Bad experiences?

-Matt


I talked to the guy for a few minutes, cause i was getting the car smogged (passed) and all.

that's weird, I work in that area and have never heard of them. Are they some hole in the wall shop or are they pretty visible from El Camino. Also, what's the closest cross street...

Yea it's hiding behind the Wienershitzel, there's a whole auto shop place, (Smogg, Car Service(pistons), and Rotor Sport.

It's not really a hole in the wall, i mean cause there are alot of 7's most of them are the racing type.


The shop is on the north side of el camino, behind the wienerschnitzel, there's a giant sign that says smog, so just follow that. Between Kiely and San Tomas.

-Matt


P.S. The smog guy there is pretty cool, cause he will run rx-7's at aobut 3,000 rpm for about 10 minutes with a giant fan blowing in front, to make sure they're hot, before he starts the test.

I have been taking my TII to Paul for as long as I have owned it(over two years now.) He's is a rotary specialist but does other mazdas as well.
