RX8 Mechanics in Brampton/Mississauga

Anyone know of a decent mechanic in Brampton/Mississauga that knows the RX8? I want to have one that I can go to from time to time for things that are RX8 related like having the clutch pedal reinforcement installed, or cleaning the MAF, etc.

Both are things you can do yourself.
Very very easy to do.

In the early days we use to have install meets where we all got together with tools and such to help each other out to install ... well stuff ... anything from Coil Overs to Cat Back exhaust ... u name it.

The Maf is super super super easy to do ... buy a can of brake cleaner or electrical cleaner .... spray maf ... let dry .. reinstall.

^How about you come to Kitchener and while you pickup the brakes I ordered for you I can install the clutch pedal kit.
