Anyone know of any shops that specialize in rotary cars in Houston? I know theres one in Dallas but thats to far for me.

Re: Car Talk

there is a place on veterans memorial called SGP racing that does some pretty decent work.

enginelogics works on my car

https://www.enginelogics.com

but I've never seen any rotarys there

SGP is good but all they care about is $$$

Re: Car Talk

what are you wanting to get done on your rotory?

i have some knowledge in them but nothing extensive and i have some friends that have worked on them quite a bit. most of my dealings with sgp was only when i needed something at that moment and they had it in stock and me ordering through my shop wouldnt get it in time. so all the dealings was dealer priced so i dont know what they charge for what but i have seen their work and it looks good so i guess its you get what you pay for.

Re: Car Talk

Well i'm not sure what I want done on my rx-8, but I want something simple. And I don't want it to sound like a "ricer" car( I already have 1 of those).

Re: Car Talk

have you done any lurking on the rx-8 forums?

I'd start there

Re: Car Talk

it doesnt have to  

a mazda is still an import and seeing as we are in houston i figured that forum would be suiting. i use to be on there a lot when i was heavy in the scene.

Re: Car Talk

There is a place off 59s near Kirkwood, and they specialize in Toyota and Mazda (I think).

Autologic is also a great place. Jason, the owner, can work on anything and everything. When I first met him he was building Fords, and he now owns an Import shop. I think this is their number   713-516-2081

Re: Car Talk

If it is for engine work , I would say you can only go to a  dealer; and only get original parts. The components in a Mazda Wankel have nothing in common with a piston engine. The engineering in a Mazda engine is  amazing; but it also convinced me I didn't ever want one because of the sophistication needed for any (engine) work.

Re: Car Talk

I always get asked, "Hey is that a V6?". And when I tell them its a rotary, they say, "huh?"
