i dont know if anyone has heard of Z's motorsports but i know a guy he did some work for and aslo he apparently has done other including several of his own but i dont know if i trust him hes kinda getto. He tried to sell me some crap and i dont know where it came from (prob. stolen) but if you want to talk to him yourself his place is off of kuykendul on the northside of 1960. i didnt want to take my chances with him so when its time (85k) im gonna tackle it myself i know a bit about cars jus didnt waant to spend the time to do it. but in all honesty there are two 7s over there now FC and FD and ive seen some off his work (bolt-ons) and he can alteast do that see what you think.

 

I would not recommend anyone I did not trust myself.

 

What about JCAutoSpec? I've heard really good things about them, you guys (specifically Killjoy) got any opinions on them?

 

Never heard of them.

 

beside maz-max maybe a 5 hours drive to dallas to rotary performance are the only place that would warrenty their work

 

Just makin a suggestion.....i didn't say he wasnt capable of doin the work;people get different impressions. The guy i know he did work for trusted him to work on his car and i drove it and it was fine... i personally just dont want him to work on my car; when it comes to the FD i can be ****.

 

It's cool.

Let's just say that first impressions can mean all the difference and your gut feelings might be correct.

 

Keith, whatever happened to the idea for a sticky on this subject?

 

Well, about how much am I looking at for the reman engine from Maz-Max?

 

Give them a call 713-896-8005.

Bryan is a club member and the service manager. He will give you an honest opinion.

 

I'll do it for cheap

welcome to the forums B. I had nearly forgotten about old Vic.

 

I'm tired of it all. I am not mechanically inclined enough to finish my car. I work two jobs, go to school full time, and have a house to maintain. I rarely have the time to finish what I started nearly 4 years ago.

I need a Rotary mechanic to come to my house and work on my car in my garage. I know it's more of a long term housecall, but I would prefer the mechanic to be mobile, and flexible with time.

I am willing to pay a very SUBSTANTIAL amount of money for his time and labor.

PM me for details, but basically in a nutshell this is what I need done:

1990 Convertible Auto converted to manual with a Jspec S5 TII motor.

I have a full front clip, and as far as I know, no missing parts. I just plain don't have the time.

Any help is appreciated, I would only require the mechanic to have done this type of work before, no guessing.

And yes, I have consulted gotham racing, unfortunately my car would have to sit/wait for about 3-4 months costing at bare minimum $2700 +.

have you started?
how immediate do you need it done?
rats nest staying or going?
any other mods?
do you have a budjet for new parts and materials? (hoses, cleaning the injectors ect that come allong with doing it correct).

was that figured into your Quote from gotham?

 

If you had a third gen I would be up for it or perhaps Chuck. Make it to Tuesday's Club meeting and we can talk about your project.

 

Parts are Parts!

 

1) I have only extracted both motors, that's it.
2) The sooner the better, but no deadline.
3) Going
4) Zero Mods. I want it absolutely stock minus an air filter.
5) I have a moderate budget in mind when it comes to new parts. Moderate, not tight.

Like I said, if anyone has questions about the work at hand, please feel free to PM me.

Thanks

 

I think I just may show up to this meeting. Who am I asking for?

 

Ask for Kyle or Chuck, and there are alot of 2 gen capable wrenchers that always show up.

 

I will be there in my beater car then.

Hey man how much did you get the front clip for and from who?

 

I bought mine for $2500 and it wasn't from a JDM clip importer.


I attended the 7 club meeting tonight, and although I met some nice fellas, I couldn't stay the whole time, I have work at 8pm. I never got to meet this guy Chuck.

I didn't really get too much of anyone actually there at the meet that would work on my car, but I think I may use Phillip's buddy to work on mine.

I'm still looking for a mechanic soon.

Someone please help me out.
I was the guy in the riced out black 240sx

 

I'm in for it...

This will make my thrid one for my belt..

I can start next week and have it done in a full day (16 Hours).

I will PM you about addresses and other stuff.

BTW.... I am Chuck

 

not bad on the 2500 for clip.. i bought mine for 1100....and its all ready started to be put in the tii......
