New guy here.

Silver '04 in Castle Pines

 

Welcome, not many people here honestly. There are a few Rx8's around the metro area, but nobody posts here (the Colorado section) really.

 

Welp, @114K my rx8 went boom, had it since 8K right after covid hit/shutdown..for the past few months I've been trying to find a reputable shop / person.
Wish we had rotary shops around here - I don't trust myself to do rebuilds / not very mechanically inclined.
Do you guys generally rebuild own or have a good place in CO to go for this?

 

I swapped my bad engine for a mazda remanufactured engine. I did the engine swap myself. I also added a s2 transmission at the time as my old s1 was bad from the previous owner.

 

There used to be a rotary shop years ago, but now there isnt one dedicated to that. You could try SRM Motorsports, there is a guy there that is a rotary enthusiast, but I have no experience with them so far.

 

5250 Performance in Denver seems to like and be knowledgeable about rotaries. Still looking for a shop / mechanic in COS.

 

i have a matte black 8. In Boulder and Louisville area primarily

 

I've been in Fort Collins area for about 7 yrs now, coming from New England. Haven't used my Red RX-8 in a while, it gets so dusty sitting there. Wishing there were some (decent) tracks around, as it's setup for track, not so much CO streets dips and curbs. Was another down the street, they traded for an MX-5.

 

Figured I'd try here first because I don't want to ship (local is always best).
Have 4 quarts of Idemitsu premix + 16oz premix bottle (filled with 13 oz of premix)
Thinking $35?
I'm in West Arvada.
