Which FC is that?

I'm up north (Santa Cruz, Davis, Berkley, SF, Sac., then Santa Barbra on the way home) and man, I am surprised how many cute girls driving RX7s there are!

I'd still rather be home, though. 'Nor-Cal' hella sucks.

Well as those of you that went to the last Rotary meet in San Bernardino know, I didn't go due to fear of an issue relating to low coolant levels.

I have been leaking coolant, checking the reservoir often, and adding a cup of water every two weeks for about a month and a half now. However, I could not find any leaks what-so-ever. My dad thought that one of the seals internally might have started leaking into the engine block itself, burning off the leaking coolant, which would explain two things:
1) the rough idle at startup (sounds and acts like a 2 stroke)
2) the inability of myself to find any leaking fluid in the engine bay

So my dad, after explaining the problem to Louie from Rotary Reliability and Racing, where we've been taking the car for its rotary-eccentricities that the car has that only a rotary mechanic would know about, confirmed that my dad's theory as to the leaking coolant was most likely correct. Louie said he would rebuild it for $4000, but I've heard great things about this Lucky 7 Racing shop, where I've been wanting to take the car for a while. Does anyone have any first hand experience, or heard good or bad things about any local shops in rebuilding engines?


I could really use your guys' help and advice in this area. Any and all criticisms / suggestions are welcomed with open arms. Thank you in advance!
