hi y'all

I've recently bought my first rx7 and while it was waiting to go through inspection a mechanic dropped his card off. i was planning on taking it in to have him do some work on it, but i wanted to know if anyone has had him work on their car before. His name is Michael Quinn and he runs the shop, Unique Precision Rotary out of laurel Maryland. If anyone has any feedback positive or negative about this guy/place please let me know.

 

Where exactly were you when you had him drop a card? I assume a Mazda dealership. Why was he there and what was he driving? Usually you can tell hint yourself to a few things right off the bat.

 

a gas station near my house. i think he was just there getting gas, but i wasn't there when he dropped the card off, they just gave it to me when i picked my car up.

 

what kind of work are you having done?

 

body work and a tune

 

your in MD, why not just go to PF Supercars?

 

never heard of it. i've only been in the rx7 community for a couple weeks now. the only other shop then this one i've heard of is KDR, and thats too far away for me.

 

bodywork you will want a bodyshop, I cant see too many shops doing bodywork AND tune, most likely using outside people for one or the other.

I think its best you do some research before bringing the car to anyone for tune, bodywork anyone can handle for you.

 

your best bet for a tune, is to contact ErnieT he gets his car tuned over there so he can tell you all about them

your tons better off going to someone that people know and trust then to "try" out someone new

 

what kind of set up is in this car?

 

ErnieT's car setup? Interesting question. Historically it's ranged from sick to downright wicked.

no not ernies, the original poster

 

setup? we dont even know the generation

 

its an all stock 1987. i'm not completely sure of which specific type it is, but it's a four lug with a back seat.

 

so you dont need a tune, you need a TUNE UP

I tried calling PFS 2 times when I was engine swap shopping, they would not even call me back, I can bet they would not want to be bothered with your 1987 either.

I would really suggest you get yourself a Hanes manual and read up a bit, a tune up is something you should do yourself so that you get acquainted with your car, it requires the most basic of tools and just dont touch any set screws or try to adjust anything under the hood.

 

That's true big shops like that don't have time for small jobs like tune ups.

honestly s4 n/a's are by far the easiest rx7 to work on, there just so simple

they have a stupid small rats nest
like 4 connectors
and everything is mechanical which keeps electronics to a minimum

i just recently banged out a direct engine replacement when i blew mine, if i did it all in one straight shot would have taken me like a half a day to R&R the engine

there fun simple and easy to work on, plus if you do some reading on the forums, everything that could possibly go wrong has been covered and probably has a writeup with pictures on how to fix it

enjoy it dude, there real fun
